How to slow down a Word macro

I need to slow down a Word macro.  It's a very simple macro that skips forward word by word, stopping at the end of a word.  I'll include the code below.

I do transcription for a living.  I need to be able to cursor through the text at approximately the same pace as the speaker.  My normal cursor key moves far slower than my speaker.  My Next Word macro moves far faster than my speaker.  

I am not a programmer, but I do understand Word macros.  So please give me specific instructions.  :)

Thank you in advance.

Sub nextword()

'
' nextword Macro
'
'
    Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1
    Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
End Sub
