well...my sister has the same problem so what i suggest you do is just ignore the girl who talks about people and dont care what other people think.If you do then well...you got a problem.And also talk to your partner about how she should speak louder and help you when you present.HOpe i helped!!!Please send me a feedback!

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

Trust me, as someone who is personally experiencing the 11th grade... half of them won't even pay attention to you. They'd rather be somewhere else doing something completely different.


And after you're done, none of them will remember a word you said.

They've been where you are before. I'll bet you none of them like giving presentations either.


As for the girl who talks about people? Forget her. She's going to grow up and have 37 cats and live in a dumpy trailer. =DD Just keep thinking that.

they won't remember a word you said 10 minutes after you do your presentation, don't worry.
