Apprehensions

Before my oral presentation I was admittedly nervous. I, along with many others, are scared of speaking in front of a large audience like my classmates. There are methods that can be used to eliminate this apprehension, however. Two ways that one can eliminate these apprehensions is by practicing speaking to a group and by using notecards that have what you plan to say written on them. By using notecards, the speaker does not have the additional worry of remembering what they want to say. They can simply read off the card. Practice helps eliminate the frightening feeling of standing in front of a crowd because you are conditioned in the act of speaking to people after repetition.
