Pretty good!
Have and live both require pronunciation of the letter v.
If you bite your bottom lip (lightly) with your upper front teeth when pronouncing the v, you’ll get closer to the sound needed, to pronounce words with v in it.

Great job! In my opinion the only thing is the pronunciation of “Octopuses” the ending sounds a bit off.
