The user is a class 12th commerce student. The student has stage fear and she is not confident in public speaking. She wants to improve her communication skills because it is important. The expert has shared strategies to overcome this fear. First, you should be comfortable with the language you speak in, whether it is hindi or english or any other language that does not matter. Public speaking is not an inborn talent many times and we need to work on it. At first, everyone usually hesitates on stage. It is a functional skill which can be developed to an extraordinary level through proper training and practice. Many people avoid public speaking. It’s just like riding a bike where you need to do a lot of practice for public speaking as well. You can talk to yourself in front of the mirror. You can talk to your loved ones like your family, friends and colleagues in english. It will help you to overcome this obstacle. You need to focus on 2 things. One is that there should be a purpose of speech. You should be speaking on something you know very well. You should know about your topic before speaking and be prepared for questions that the audience can ask you. Second thing is to be organized. The more organized you are the less nervous you will be. Practice the presentation several times in front of your friends and ask for their feedback for you. After that, you can practice with those which you are less familiar with. They will give you honest feedback. You can also listen to the great orators like steve jobs, martin luther king and barack obama. They don’t hesitate in front of the public.
