Yeah...I'm agreed with you all, but it's a matter of practice as well.

Public speaking is an art if your speaking skills are not developed yet, try to keep on practicing it and whenever you speak, think yourself in front of some audience, pick suitable words and sentences for routine speaking …you’ll feel better!

Hi there

Tell me who does not get scared!! It is very normal. I used to follow some basic steps just to get more prepared and to get more confident.

1. You can write down everything what ever u want to present.

2. Make sure you're focusing on the topic. If you use power point do not write too much stuff on the slides. Our human mind can not follow more than 3-4 lines of words.

3. Practice with your wife, family members, tell them to pretend just like the audience.Ask them to ask you questions.

4. In the presentation your main intention would be creating a friendly-easy going atmosphere as soon as possible.

5. Use some decent jokes, make your audience intersted on the topic. make them laugh.

6. Do a good research on the topic, so if you get a question, do not get frusted.

7. Remember be to the point!!!

My 2 cents!!

Cheers
