Re: Public Speaking

I had to take a public speaking class. I found that I'm nervous in the beginning, but then I start to calm down. And yes, it does have to do with how well I understand the material.

I also found that not making direct eye contact helps. But we got points for eye contact, so I found a way to make it look like I was looking at people. If you look toward people in the back, they can't tell if you're looking at them or to the side of them. Over them works too.
