Okay so im not 100% sure if its the best place to post this but as i dont want some: buttseck,noob,wtf etc etc answer i think i made the right choice puttin that there.

Okay so i need some help from you guys/girls out there about Oral Presentation. Im going to do it in about 3 hour i think not sure. Its a presentation about a book as many of you prolly did in school...i know the book well enough but i fucking hate to be in front of a whole class...im always like...shit i must be boring them to death!

Anyway...give me some tips on how you do to get over the stress, btw im never stressed when it come to saying stupid things and funny comeback etc...but when it get to those serious things i just...choke. It sucks, real bad!

So thanks in advance for your tips! (Btw right now its 6:19 am...and im drinkin some beer to relax...havent sleep the whole night so...

If you feel scared when you stare at the group of people, it'll help if you stare at the back of the room i.e. the wall. It will look like you are maintaining eye contact, but it will give you time to calm down. Try to avoid a monotone as that would be boring. Also movement of the hands will provide some variety.

If you know your stuff, it shouldn't be too bad. Chillax.

You’re drinking beer @ 7am in the morning... Don’t get shit faced for the presentation.
Aside from that just be yourself and be confident. Best advise I can give really

First never ever drink beer. It lies too heavy in the stomach. You have to drink something lighter I think!
And always remember to take extremely deep breaths so that your brain gets pretty much oxygen and it will be faster and you will concentrate better.

Do these things and relax then you will prolly be okay.

Which grade are you in?

I also had a huge issue with public speaking. But I'm over that know your subject !! be enthusiastic about it use inflection when you speak (up and down tones). Maintain eye contact don't just look at one person move around.

Remember you speaking to them about the subject they know nothing about you are the expert on the subject so they will listen be confident in that fact.

And of course remember to eat something really healthy and perhaps a hour before eat something with a lot sugar. Also use a lot of body-language. Do not stand still and look like a moron.

Are you using any kind of help like paper or memorycards. They will fuc king like it when people just talk without any help at all.

Jerk off, take a big shit/piss before, works for me EVERYTIME I gave an oral (lol!) presentation!

Eating/drinking isnt important!!! You dont want to be "backed up" if ya know what I mean. . . It makes things more nerve racking!! If your not backed up in any way you tend to be more relaxed!!

p.s. It also pays to know what the hell your talking about!

no, I can eat hotdogs 24 around. And you should try a presentation of 25 minuts. Thats fric king annoying.

But remember these things are I am pretty sure you will be okay.

How old are you since you are drinking beer?

For some it may help to think a bit arrogant but if you do this do not in anyway let the others see this.

The 9th graders need to have a subject more that this. Greografi, history or christanity I think.

stef10: Member; +173|6679|Denmark

Yep, you are teached in religion in Danish schools, but still it is a very little subject that you maybe are teached in 1 lesson every week or so.

Well, the grades in the 10th grade really do not matter as long as you pass. But when I get to the 3th year in high school then im fucking gonna throw up and shit constantly. If you fuck it up then the good educations are gone!
