Literally just lean into your accent and it'll carry you 100% of the way through conversation ๐ Don't even worry about feeling like you're hamming it up. We can't tell the difference!
What do you mean by accent? I can only do an American accent (maybe a little British if I try hard)
No I mean your native accent. I see you're from germany, and while you might not think you have one, I'd dare to assure you that you do! Even baseline "American" is technically transatlantic IIRC
I think I watched too much American TV it's kinda hard for me to do the German accent now and it feels weird to do tbh
Unless it's absolutely perfect, a native speaker will pick up your accent...how's your "th" that's usually a dead give away for native German speakers.
