How can I not be so nervous when making speeches?

the more educated you are about the particulars of what it is you are to discuss publicly.. the more confident you will be to speak publicly

u have to stay in front of mirror first practice confidently in front of mirror and during speech watch in you eyes then perform in front of some of your friends do this two or three times U will feel the difference

I dont know how. if u find a good solution please inform me.

here are few tips from me(i m a nice orator)- 1.practice hard 2.try to smile(u will be relaxed) 3.look at the people,yes dont try to escape and just think that they are there to hear u and u r so special. 4.be confident and stand relaxed 5.find some friends faces in the audience,that will boost u. 6.add some kind of light laughter(if possible in ur speech).

by doing more of it i guess.

Try some relaxation techniques before you go out onto the stage. Take deep breaths, relax from your head down to your toes and think about relaxing each part. And make sure you've practiced well. I just simply do presentations like I'm talking to my friends. But I don't really get too nervous about much. Good luck!

It does get easier the more of them you do, practice makes perfect and all of that. Try to make sure you know your subject but don't worry about the actual lines, far better to stand up and just talk, knowing that you know roughly what you want to say and how long it will take to say it.

If you find out the answer let me know! I hate getting up in front of people and talking or giving speeches. I get red faced and start stammering. I hate public speaking more than anything else.

be confident and dont underestimate urself...prepare well for the topic have direct interaction with audience...call out thr names

Nervous? While you won’t get rid of the butterflies, you can get them to "fly in formation" if you know and rehearse your material. It is crucial to practice your presentation out loud. Enough practice will allow you to deliver your speech without reading it word for word – with practice, you can use your text or notes simply to jog your memory. Unfortunately, when people read their speeches, most lose their audiences’ attention because they use a monotone and fail to maintain eye contact.

Picture them in there underwear......i never liked that it doesnt work lol. There really insnt much you can do i just try and pretend the room is empty but im a person who loves to act so i dont really get shy in front of others because well i dont really care what they think of me.
