Dear Alex,

To improve on your Pali pronunciation, you could try reading a Pali
text out loud. Although the pronunciation may sound crude at first,
with practice it will improve over time. You can also check with the
pronunciation keys in Pali primers. I like Warder's key the best. To
take the practice further you could try memorizing a Pali text and
reciting it from memory, aloud or in silence. Also, chanting with
another person or a group of people would help too.

Best wishes,
Jim
