OK, I'm going to ask this.
I am always nervous when I have to present or say something in front of a group of people.Or when, for some reason, all eyes are on me. I get very nervous and my heart pounds and my face gets red. I feel like I'm going to faint or collapse. This happens mostly at school.On the first day of school we were suppossed to right 3 things we are good at and 3 things we need to work on. For the second question, I put Be better at talking in front of a group of people. Big Mistake. My teacher has been calling on me to answer everything! He thinks I don't notice but I know he is doing this to "Boost my confidence" The thing is, I have NO problem answering things from my desk when I can't see everyone looking at me. How can I stop him from having me answer EVERYTHING?
Also, we have been memorizing poems that we present to the class once we've memorized them. We did our first poem last week. I knew the whole poem perfectly. And even if i didn't, 12 people said it before me, giving me plenty of time to know it. However when I got up front, I got really nervous and my hands started sweating and I said the poem OK, not great, but it was a very short poem, Now, how can I be less nervous when presenting???? PLEASE HELP!!!
