How comfortable are you speaking in front of large groups of people?

Joined a Gavel Club at the college I attend. Has helped build my confidence in this regard ten fold.

Zero confidence but I'm good at winging it. My supervisor always makes me translate for all the Spanish workers at our job when we have meetings since I'm the only one who is bilingual and it's always nerve wrecking but I guess it gets easier every time I do it

0% сomfortable. Passing Public Speaking class in collage was a nightmare, just like every speech---- a damn torture. I have terrible anxiety when it comes to that ...glad its over. Would never ever put myself through that

I never find it easy, whatever the event.
But i can say I've learned that being well prepared makes the whole thing go a lot more smoothly.

I don't like it. But the more you do it, the easier it becomes.

Totally comfortable, something I've done for years

I used to hate doing this but then my pituitary gland failed which means I no longer have chemicals coursing through my body when I find myself in a stressful situation. Now I am fine with it, no nerves at all.

I don’t feel comfortable but if I have to do it then I need time to practise.I went to culinary arts school and we have to talk in front of the class.I practised for hours before talking the next day 😂

@NorthernRoses interesting.

People say I'm a little too confident because I'd do the douchiest thing and laugh hard around 100's of people if I simply felt like it. Maybe I'm crazy though 🤔

It annoys me to have to. (Gotta project my voice, and I'm soft-spoken)

@65Roses Practically shouting and people still can't hear you?

I used to do PowerPoint presentations for a charity for a few years, perhaps not a large group, about 20 😀

Not very comfortable I have done afew times but my voice maybe a little shaky and my hands shaking
Not at all i totally hated it at college. Id hear my voice & go into mild panic.

I've had to do it many times, so I'm comfortable doing it.

I do surprisingly well for how shy I am.

I'm not crazy about it but it's not really a problem for me.
