speaking

I get nervous when lecturing at times and find myself talking very quickly. What are some ways to overcome this?

Hi Tara,
Make sure you are confident and prepared. Remember, you know more than your students...believe in you! Arrive early so that you can take deep breaths.

Relax and just think that you are talking to a younger family member.

Hi Mahmood,
Being preparing helps with being an effective speaker as well. You can always look at the person's third eye, which is between the two eyes, right above the nose to generate eye contact.
