That's a pretty common thing showstopper496. When I was in high school ( about a thousand years ago ) I got the big sweat happening when I had to do any public speaking. I was told by a very wise man ( my granddad ) to poke a little fun at yourself with a couple of jokes ( nothing too personal though ) right outta the gate. Get them laughing...even if it's at you ! :D for a few seconds and that gives you confidence and puts the whole situation in perspective. After all, it's not like they're expecting you to come up with a cure for cancer ;) ...........you're just talking to them.
I found that strategy to work every time the situation came up after that...I just think of some way to make people laugh a bit and everyone relaxes. Try it out & see what happens......... :)

:lol: @Riddler, Worked with me too! Apart from everyone relaxing, you yourself relax more by breaking the "ice" :)

Allot of people tell you to picture your audience in there underwear...

...but what I found works best is getting drunk and talk wearing nothing but your underwear...

[bigboab]

So thats where my underwear went! :P :P :P

[uNz[i]]

Nooo!

Whatever you do, don't try the old "imagine the audience in thier underwear" trick.

Especially if your teacher is:
- A fat old Man *shudder*
- A Hot Chick (that'll probably make your nerves worse)
- A fearsome cane-wielding old nun (No explanation required, methinks)

Whoever invented that trick was one perverse S.O.B.

i am afraid to speak out infront of the class - when everyone is looking at you that is - i dont mind just saying stuff to teacher when answering the question - but the presentation infront of the class is tuff &#33;
