Discussion 1

What makes me apprehensive about public speaking is that I get nervous easily and I start to finish my presentation as fast as I can. When it comes to presenting by myself, I am really bad at it. I also start to forget what I am going to say when I present, so then I leave out information; and sometimes important ones. What happens the most is that I stutter and start to speak really fast and the next thing you know, my speech is over. I remember people trying to show me different ways of overcoming my fears but it did not work at all.
