Week 5: Trouble with Speaking

Looking back at my first time that my language meant something meaning was when I gave my first speech to my high school class. I was really nervous and I was scared that I would sound like a moron up there trying to motivate my peers to do something. I wasn’t really shy in school but after that experience and trying to talk in class made it hard for me because I get scared that I am going to say a stupid thing or sound like a moron when doing so. I didn’t feel the support from that teacher in that class and not that moment scarred me for the rest of my life because ever since I don’t say anything in class because it will be stupid or people are going to look at me strange. But thinking back on the moment I don’t really see why I would be like the way iam now because I do at times feel comfortable to be talking in front or with a large group of my peers, it’s the speeches I have to give to people older than I and more professional than I is when it is scary and my nerves get the better of me.
