Hey! =]
15/f 9th grade
okay well last friday i had a 10 minute presentation, well it was supposed to be 10 miunutes but i tottaly bombed it! it sucked. I got up there and i looked at everyone and i just forgot EVERYTHING i was supposed to say, we got to use notecards and i couldnt even like read the notecards right my words were all slurred together and i was like shaking like crazy! and like i had like LOOOONG pauses and yeah when i was done everyone was like laughing and it was so embaressing but i had to soke it up.
but i need some like some GOOD techniques on how to do presentions, and maybe even if you have some embaressing stories about when you presented
because in the spring time we have to do a 50 minute presentation ahhh!
so helppp!
thanks! =] (link)

oh gosh thats nothing!
one time in speech [i was a freshman and EVERYONE else in my class was either a junior or senior] we had to make a 7 min presentation.. and everyone in that class knew each other so they were all fine. but when i got up there i freaked out. i didnt know ANYONE, and it was like my 2nd week in high school. so while i was talking i kept stuttering and taking 8 second pauses.. then everyone started laughing and i realized my face was as red as a tomato and my hands were practically dripping sweat.. so i was running out of the class and i tripped on a desk.. yeah bad news. i stayed in the bathroom for the rest of the class.
so after that i thought of techniques. and this is what i did.
1.) tell yourself that your the best person ever and that no one is as good as you.. and that while they are watching you they are kinda wishing they were as good as you [sounds cocky.. but it works]
2.) just gaze at them. dont focus.. and if your not good at gazing then just look at the back wall.. or the desk.. they all think your looking at them when your really not.
3.) make firends in that class, so its like.. 'oh my friends are watching me, no big deal'
4.) just htink to yourself.. HALF those people, honestly, probably are not even paying attention.
#1&4 helped me the most!
just calm down, dont get nervous before hand, everyone else is doing it.
goodluck! message me if you have any more questions.
