I Hate Public Speaking

We're having our impromptu speech right now and I feel like vomiting 🙃 I'm shaking like a leaf and I feel cold all over. I'm good when it comes to writing but I blank out whenever I'm in front of an audience 😰 Right now I'm distracting myself so that I could keep calm before I get called.

Just remember your audience is rooting for you,if it goes smoothly they hear a good speech but if you start to flounder they're in your corner even more...at this point just organize your main points,not exact wording then knock em dead!
This is especially true in a class where everyone's going through the same ordeal...good luck!🙃

@bookerdana It's all fine now! I just finished mine and I had to make a speech about "lights" 😂 Wish I saw your comment though before I was called. I'll remember it when we do another impromptu for our midterm exams next week. I'll just fake confidence then lol.

@Gelartsyyy You can also go to Plan B:imagine your audience buck naked!😛
They used to actually tell people to do that that! Never worked for me but at least you get som😉e fun out of it....
Be you did fine!!!!
