I'm Patrick McCarthy, but you can call me Pat. This is the space where I can help you with your daily life problems, one-on-one. Go ahead and ask away!
Dear Pat, I often feel nervous when teachers call on students to answer questions. What's worse, when they call on me, my mind goes completely empty. I feel so afraid and shy. What should I do? Jason
Hi Jason, I completely understand you. I also fight with nervousness when speaking in front of others. Public speaking makes almost everyone nervous, but the good news is that you can get used to it.
First, try to stay calm. Even if you are called on, take a deep breath and give yourself a moment to think. What helps me the most is focusing on the first thing I want to say and letting my thoughts start from there.
Second, prepare yourself. Pay attention in class and review important points before classes. It may also help to write down a few key ideas. I don't like forgetting things I want to say, so it's OK to have a list of important points in front of me.
Finally, don't be afraid to make mistakes. Teachers understand that students get nervous, and classmates are usually thinking about themselves.
See speaking in front of others as a chance, for you can share your ideas and get improved. Be patient with yourself, and you'll get better over time. Pat
