I tend to get really nervous in front of people. Sometimes, when I give a speech, I would hyperventilate. Other times, I have a lot of things going on in my head and just so much to say, but I don't know how to express them properly. I say "ummm" and "uhhh" a lot. Also, I often appear very passive and normally lack confidence. I get criticize a lot for my grammar and pronunciation, thus I am afraid to say (and write) certain things at times, fearing others judgment. Additionally, my vocabulary is very limited. I don't have the fancy and articulate vocabulary to enhance my speech.
Do you have any advice for me? How do you do it? Whenever I watch people make speeches or just speak in general, I would admire their ability to express their thoughts so well. Other times, I am in awe by the speaker's ability to command attention and captivate his or her audience. Everyone is just so amazing, yet I my speaking skills are very poor. If you have any advice, I would much appreciate it. Thank-you very much.
