Describe a time when you had to speak in front of an audience. What were your fears? How did you handle them? What advice would you give to someone struggling with stage fright?

 It was during a partner project in environmental science. Me and my friend were working together and she didn't want to speak in front of everyone. She has always been anxious and doesn't like when the attention was on her. She just wanted to hold our project up and say what we did on which I didn't mind since I understood where she was coming from. I talked the entire time in front of the class, I was just nervous that I might get the information wrong. I had the paper in my hand and reread it to myself before presenting and made sure to not rush it. The advice I would give to somebody is to just talk because 99% of the time, nobody is actually listening or looking at you. To take a deep breath and speak when you are ready.

Went through a Public Speaking Presentation. Public speaking is the number one fear that the human population has. To practice, revise and get time right before a presentation so you could be ready.
