I joined campus with an deep kikuyu accent, I didn't notice first till people started making fun of me for that. They would laugh at most if not all of the words I said. This really hurt me and I started staying quiet most of the time, and avoiding people. The pain made me practice words more and eventually I got it right. If you can't change it, embrace it. Don't let anyone take your spark. Has anyone else gone through this?
