English speech tomorrow! Help?

[Oh My Gosh?]

I've got to do a persuasive speech tomorrow in my Year 10 English class. It's course work and we had to pick a topic that was local. Most people in my class are doing the same topic as me and I'm petrified of the speech! I'm panicking now and I used to have panic attacks so I'm scared that I'll have one tomorrow and look like an idiot. There are also loads of 'Chavs' in my class and I know they'll laugh or something. I don't know what to do. We're allowed notes but I'm scared that I'll mess up and just panic. I really don't want to do this speech. It's being entered as written coursework as well and I'd rather fail the speech than do it but my teacher will probably make me! What should I do? Help!

If you have something for your panic, take it a half hour before your class. IT'll be a lot easier for you to do. Don't worry about what your peers think. I know that's hard, but tehy're not the ones grading you. Focus on your subject, speak with confidence. The more confidently you speak, the more impressive youll look. No one will know the difference! Take deep breaths and just relax.
