Is there any good ways to relax when you're really nervous about doing something really embarrasing in front of a classroom? I need some tips...

i tried picturing everyone naked once and i started to laugh in the middle of my presentation so it didn't work well for me.
now what i do is imagine that someone i'm really comfortable talking to is actually there in the room. when i was younger, i used to imagine my mom was sitting somewhere i can't see her and is completely in sync with me, even when i mess up.
good luck!

the trick here is to over practice. You learn the thing you have to perform for the class many times in front of some friends and then on the day you focus on what you are doing not the people in the class. Once you begin you will be fine, cause you will be concentrating on the next step you have trained your mind and body to take from all the practice. believe me this works

Before you go up, like when the person before you is going, take a deep breath to calm down. Actually, take quite a few. Sit there while the other person is going and just breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. CLose you're eyes and go over everything (in order) without leaving anything out. Then do it as many times as you can in your head. Then right before you go on, take one final breath, in through your nose, out through your mouth. Then walk up with confidence girl! You own it!

I take a minute to close my eyes, breathe deep and ignore the world around me. Don't take too long though, they might stare.

you could try the classic trick of picturing everyone in the room naked.
