How to approach it

Use the prep time. Scan the text and note difficult words before the mic opens.
Read in phrases. Group words into meaningful chunks and pause at commas and full stops.
Keep a steady pace. Do not rush. Clear pronunciation beats speed.
Do not stop for mistakes. If you slip, keep going. Hesitation costs fluency marks.
