Because you are afraid of messing up, but you won't, talking in front of your class increases your confidence so that you can talk easily in front of people in the future so think positively and you can do it!

I understand that the thought of talking in front of large number of people make you squirm? but you are not alone, so many others have the same problem. Many people in the world suffer from mild to extreme shyness and are struggling to overcome it. To overcome shyness, you'll need to understand the circumstances that trigger your shyness, work to change your mental state and perspective regarding those circumstances, and practice putting yourself in comfortable and uncomfortable conversations until you've worked through the worries holding you back. Remember that breaking out of your shell doesn't magically happen overnight. It takes time, effort, and of course, the desire to change.

Maybe something in your past has made you become very shy, the only way to get through this shyness is by breaking out of your comfort zone. Every once in a while try raising your hand and answering something. It'll make you feel a lot more comfortable.

It is normal to be excited and our voice starts to shake when we need to be in spot light, just take deep breath and prepare your presentation or speech and everything will be OK, i had the same problem before ;)

I haven't looked into the psychology of it, buta great many people feel anxious talking in front of their peers or a large group of people. This can cause you to speak unusually quickly, giving you less time to carefully think out what you're saying, and result in pauses between premises and ideas

In general, most people have trouble speaking in front of a class. While they may appear confident on the outside, it's likely that they are actually just as nervous as you are. That being said, those who do feel comfortable with public speaking tend to be extroverts and/or have a lot of exposure to speaking to crowds.

Because there's a number of requirements one must have in order to be able to talk easily in front of a class. They are things like:
* Feeling okay with yourself and among other people.
* Feeling that you matter
*Feeling that your opinion matters
*Feeling that you are an okay person and are welcome
If instead you feel that you're not okay, that you're not good enough, that people don't like you and things like that, you will have a hard time feeling at ease talking to your class.
TL;DR: If you don't feel at ease talking in front of a class, it's because you don't feel completely secure in yourself. Talking in front of a class only brings it out.

Talking in front of groups in general can be hard for people, but it's nothing to be ashamed of. A lot of people have a fear of public speaking. Some easier ways to combat this fear is to do some deep breathing exercises to relieve stress before presenting, or, instead of making eye contact with someone, stare at the back wall, just above the heads of the people when you look up from your paper. This will give the illusion that you are looking at the crowd, but not make you feel nervous. Another thing I do personally is that if you have the opportunity, don't be the first or last to share. Those are the people who are remembered the most, and this fact alone gives you a sense of reassurance.

Talking in front of the class, or presenting yourself to people is a skill, that's nurtured by practice. Keep practicing in front of the mirror, with your family, close friends, then go public. Boost your self confidence, by working on your look, the way you talk, and accepting your imperfection.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
