Most of us are all

IDIOM in good
company, in the same boat, in the same shoes- we all share the same experience
REMEMBER: We’re all
on your side. Everybody wants you to do well.
Try to relax, if
possible. We are interested in what you have to say.
If you mess up,
just take a second. Take a moment. Take a deep breath.
We’ll wait.
Then keep going.
No need to apologize.
Don’t apologize.
Four Tips/Pieces of
Advice I Gave My Children for Public Speaking
1. Deaf
grandmother- speak up, speak a bit louder than usual, slow your rate of
speech down a bit, slower than usual
2. Good dog!-
energetic tone, energy in your voice, animated, avoid monotone
3. Magic eye
– eye contact, right between the eyes
4. Wavy hands- hand gestures, be careful of pacing
It gets easier with practice.
If you see a presenter that you like, copy some aspects of
their style.
EXTRA TIP: Reframe in my mind- no group, just individuals
Everybody is on your side.
