Overall Mark | 8.5 | good/excellent

Use of English (vocabulary & grammar) (out of 10) | You used good, appropriate and professional vocabulary for your sector. And you had no major grammar mistakes. My suggestions:
· “disruptive digital health company” – too many adjectives, use less e.g. ‘digital health company’. · clinical experts – e.g. doctors · “What we do is…” – there are 26 words in this sentence, it´s too long and loses impact. · “So that they…” has 14 words and is concise and clear. · “digital mantra” is unclear, use “company motto”. · The digital mantra, “data really improves lives” is really helpful for the listener to summarise what you do.

Clear, simple and concise ideas (out of 10) | Rosa your key messages are simple and concise. And you´ve changed the chip from Spanish into English well. For a non technical audience I think you could simplify some terms you use as explained in ‘Use of English’.
|
|
Confident delivery when speaking (out of 10) | I think you´re a confident person and overall you transmit that confidence when speaking.
|
|
Body language – be relaxed and professional (out of 10) |
I think you need to relax a little bit more when speaking to sound more natural and sound less like you´re reading. Try breathing deeply and slowing your breathing before speaking.
|
|
Project your voice (out of 10)
|
You project your voice well. You need to work more on “flow” so you sound more natural when speaking. I would also add more vocal variety – use pauses, emphasise key words, speak loudly and softly, speak really fast or slow. Using vocal variety makes it sound more interesting for the other person to listen to.
