Anxiety due to public speaking 🗯

In classrooms, I seem to be picked on to answer a lot which is impacting my ability to focus. Instead of thinking about the answer, I worry about not humiliating myself. I tense up, my body becomes very warm and I feel like I can't swallow so I take weird pauses or stumble over my words.


I've been trying to put my hand up more but the stress is still present


How do I become more confident when speaking publicly?

@WitherStorm

I think most people dislike or are not good with public speaking ..... The best speakers i have known simply do not care if and when they make mistakes or stumble. Instead they make humor their friend and let when you relax and not as tense or in your head ........the mistakes become less and the fear becomes smaller.
