Volume
Is the speaker loud enough to be heard throughout the room? Does the speaker vary volume for effect, for instance, quieter when saying something "extra important?"
Pitch (i.e., how high or low)
Is the normal pitch low, medium, or high? Does the pitch vary (high-to-low) or is it monotonous? Does the variance match the content and emphasis? Does the voice have “musicality?”
Tone
How does the voice sound? Rich? Sonorous? Pinched? Nasal? Throaty? Airy or breathy? Raspy or growly?
Rate / Enunciation
Are all words distinguishable? Is the rate too fast? Too slow? Does it vary for emphasis? Any effective pauses? Any awkward pauses?
Fluency
Do words and phrases flow together? Are rhetorical structures employed? Any problematic or overused “filler” words—“um,” “uh,” “like,” “y’know,” “and,” etc.?
