Improving accuracy of Speech to Text [IBM Watson]

So I am using the Watson ExampleStreaming Speech to Text demo as a starting point from the Unity SDK here

https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/unity-sdk

It works but the issue is accuracy.

I've read this post here How can I improve Watson Speech to Text accuracy? but have one question

By simply using my own voice to create a custom acoustic model can I expect a increase in the accuracy level? For my purposes I will ONLY be using the application with my voice.

Using your voice could help but you need to record a lot of sample utterances and will likely pay more for custom model. Before going that route, I recommend analyzing the mistaken words to see if there's a pattern and adding manual correction for those words in your code.

For example, if the model is confusing "two" and "too", you can add a manual replace function for this.
