speak slower and more carefully when I'm nervous

I get nervous speaking to a group of people and I also get nervous speaking to someone Who I know is a lot more knowledgeable than me. I think part of the answer to this is to increase my knowledge through lots of reading and enrolling on short courses. then I would have be able to speak with authority on some subjects and this should in turn help my self esteem.

i always get really nervous when im standing up in front of loads of people. the main thing you need is confidence and to breathe every now and again, when you have confidence you’ll realise there’s nothing to worry about. the only thing your nervous about is what they think of you, don’t. just believe in your self and gain some self esteem and you’ll be fine. hope this helped :)

I get nervous fairly easily. The main problem for me when I’m nervous is that I get flustered and tangled up in what I’m saying. I just want to be able to calm myself down enough when I’m nervous so that I can remember to speak slowly. As a general rule, too, I should just talk less when I’m nervous. It’s a “less is more” kind of thing.
