Kari asked:


or any kind of speaking that’s in the public. i don’t have any upcoming public whatever but i just want some tips ‘cos i’m really shy and i hate public speaking but i want to grow my confidence but i can’t seem to. every time i try, i get all tounge tied.
these answers are great but now that i think of it, whenever i speak, i seem to have a small voice and i think i need some tips for speaking louder as well…

    start off with small groups of people you feel comfortable with - friends, family, if you’re in school a class that includes a few buddies. Also, try not to do the “um” thing that many do - but if you catch yourself doing it, just move on - it’s not as bad as you think. Don’t look into the audience’s eyes, look just above the tops of their heads. Try to give your speech as if you were having a discussion on the topic with just one person in private.

    When all else fails, picture everyone in the audience in just their underwear.
