i'm a good speaker they always say...waaaaaaahhh...but know what...i have stage frights...and it really gets into my nerves... sometimes i'm already confident that i can do it...that i can finish delivering my piece without forgetting just a single word...but what always happens is that i end up stopping from talking in front of so many people because i always forget a line or two..and it's really hard for me to search those lines inside my tricky brain...wahahhahha...so the scene will be .. i will just be standing in front of the judges and just smile at them..a few seconds later i wil talk again..and the same thing will happen...wahhahaha

Try talking in front of groups of family & friends... People you're comfortable with... At family gatherings, at a friends party, whatever... Then tell your family to bring friends over, not many, may be 2 - 3 strangers... Then have your friends over... They can eventually bring someone you don't know... Keep this up until you have room full of strangers... Before you know it, you'll be speaking in front of large group of strangers as if you're speaking to your friends & family... Didn't anybody tell ya that the strangers are friends you haven't met yet...??? I used to be like that... Then I started to find any excuse to start talking in front of people... I made sure those people were people I knew & felt comfortable with, family gathering, friend's party etc... Any excuse I could find to be in a large group of people & when I was in a large group of people, I made sure I would find an excuse to talk... By the time I was graduating from college, I didn't have problem getting in front of strangers on stage talking...

Ya, i have similar stage fright like you.. When ever I am alone or with my friends I am the best speaker..Most of the time it seem to me that, to speak in stage in front of a lot of audience doesn't matter.
But whenever i fell in such situation , i become nervous. I forgot the preplanned speech. :(
