Remember to breath! I know, this sounds stupid, but seriously a lot of people hold their breathe without noticing it. Also move around SOME, not a lot. Make eye contact with each person for 5 seconds. Use appropriate hand gestures, but don’t over do it (just once in a while). Stand in the ready position bend your knees a little and lean forward. not too much just a little..

🙂

Oh, and if possible drink water before you do it, because a lot of time people get a dry mouth 😀

As mentioned before, Toastmasters is something you should check out.

You need to find a way to develop a more confident state to use while you’re speaking. This is known as anchoring (source below)

I have written an article containing a number of exercises on public speaking (linked below)

Practice, practice, practice. Look into Toastmasters, watch good public speakers live or on TV, practice when speaking to friends, set up a camera and monitor and watch your self live, and on tape (embarrassing but it really helps).

it is the same answer as when someone asks directions to get to Carnegie Hall, Practice , man, practice.

You should also try to get used to speaking before smaller groups and be very well prepared. If you use notes try not to read from them and do not use loose papers. They may see your hands trembling.

start by looking into a mirror and perfecting your vocabulary ull see how u look and listen to how u sound….. ask some closee friend whose good at english or nelanguage u wish to speak in to correct you if u go wrong……make sure u pause and in public speaking always keep eyecontact with ur audience… that way they are forced to listen to u and respect ur time……..but i hope u have something interesting to say….lol…Good luck
