When you're having what you feel like is a 'bad day' and then someone comes along out of nowhere and extends to you the simplest of kind gestures, you feel it so deeply within your heart.” ―Miya Yamanouchi

PL Notes for section 15
The volume is 85dB which is too low. We aim for between 86-92 dB but ideally we would like it to be at 89 dB.
In Audacity you will also find the option to amplify under 'effects'.
How to amplify in Audacity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_z607awyLw
If you like you can use the checker tool to verify volume and other settings.

There should be between 0.5 and 1 second of silence at the beginning of the file it is currently shorter than this
There should be 5 seconds of silence at the end of the file it is currently shorter than this
Please could you carry out the edits then upload the file using the same file name. If you need any more help please just ask. Thanks
