Practice, practice, practice, practice, practice!. Stand in front of a mirror (with a timer) and give your speech from beginning to end!.

By the time you have to stand before people, your delivery will be one problem you don't have to worry about!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

try dancing in front of people your close to and show them your entire self, scream, laugh, play dance with other people and then when you feel comfortable read the speech in front of them you'll get used to it and if you mess up in front of your class just laugh and portend that like you meant to do it!

The only way to do this is to continually be in front of crowds!. Remember the fourth wall; as though noone is watching you!. If you have to face the crowd, look through the top of their heads so that you avoid eye contact!. Take deep breaths and do a bit of stretching!. That should relax your muscles!.

Giving a report is nerve wrecking because your afraid to look stupid!. If you go up there and act like your nervous or scared you will be and its gonna be obvious!. Wear an outfit that makes you feel good!. Think positive and ( only for presentations ) act like your just plain better than everyone, that you ONLY know what your talking about!. Don't think too much about what your going to say!. It'll cause you to stutter!. Don't even think about anything negative!. Just don't come across too strong though!. Just relax!. If you do good the other kids won't think too much about it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
