I would be grateful if you could post your thoughts. My English is very poor. I realize I have a strong accent, but I would love it if you could help me specify what I'm doing wrong.
Appreciate any input.

It’s understandable.
Some of your /t/s are a bit lazy in such words as ‘got’. They are good in ‘court’ and ‘that’. You might be trying for an American flap /t/, which makes sense if you are in America; but a hard /t/ makes you more understandable.
Some of your vowels need work, eg. judge, court, ruled.
The intonation is somewhat sing-song, but maybe you speak differently when you aren’t reading.

Re: Accent evaluation
I have a doubt with regard to "th", I'm getting to pronounce it properly?

Yes it's good, though you've only used the ð of 'that', not the θ of 'thing'.

Re: Accent evaluation
I don't know why, but I have difficult to pronounce the θ, I guess that ð is naturally easier.
Thanks a lot, Raymott!
