Um, I'm kind of terrible at public speaking and last time I gave a presentation on my own (or tried to) I had an anxiety attack, but here goes:

Just remember, you notice more than anyone if you mess up, and if someone else notices you mess up, I garuntee you that you care 50% more than they do.

And if something goes really wrong, brush it off and start over. If you get tongue-tied, and mangle a sentence, just give a little laugh, and start over. If you don't make it a big deal, other people won't.

Before you go out and speak, pick something to focus on if you're freaking out. Like, if you feel yourself starting to lose control focus on a specific floor tile, for example (bad example).

If there's a friend or family member in the audience, direct the presentation towards them. It's a lot less stressful to talk to friends than stranger.

Alright, that's all I got. Hope it helps! <3
