Hey well I need to present a project on the 13th in front of the 10 and 11 graders and im in 9th grade and I cant do it Im not prepared im SUPER shy and so is my partner and she talks really really really really low barely I can hear her so My question is??? What should I do about my shyness becuase there is this girl in the 10 grade that talks about the peoples style and talks alot about people and I hate that..So what should I do???..I need help ASAP!!!!
Ha I'm sorry to laugh at this question, it's not you, it's just that I am giving a very similar speech tommorow =]
Here's what I did:
1)Get together with your partner on multiple occasions and practice together, but have your practice audience in the next room. Tell your friend she gets a donut if they can hear her speech in the next room.
2)Practicing alone? I know this is going to sound weird but practice in your underwear. taht way, if you happen to forget your pants you won't be nervous. Just kidding. But that will make you more confident. Just think, "If I can do this in my friggin underwear then I should be able to do this with pants on no sweat!"
3)And the girl who talks about people? I've got a great trick. Try to give her eye contact as you speak. Stare her down girl! And as long as you take care to look fabulous on the 13th she wont have anything to say about you anyway!
Above all remember it's just a speech and try to have fun with it. Fake it till you make it. The more comfortable you look up there, the more comfortable you will actually FEEL
