How to overcome nervousness..?

[Devilish]

How do you overcome nervousness? I get up in front of about 25 people and my face goes tomato red, and I get all jittery and scared. Imagining everyone in they're underwear doesn't work. Look at people's fore heards instead of eye contact doesn't work. What can I do? I keep getting lower grades than I should on reports because I can't give eye contact. (It has to be something I'm able to do in the classroom) Thanks^^ I really need help with this XD

Well im not the shyest person but i cant handle big crowds unless ur acting the best thing to do is go with a friend usually when im with my friends it gives me a little more encourage meant.

My friend was up there with me. I was giving a presentation on how to french braid. I was so jittery, it looked terrible XD But people said it was good because I only took a minute to do it.

I often found that doing breathing exercises often helps me relax Slow, deep breathing helps me the most when i'm nervous. Also, listening to music beforehand

I was in the spelling bee in front of over 300 people at my school. Just ignore them and focus on what you're doing. Stare at someone you know (or someone you like..) Or someone who's your friend, and watching them helps you forget about everyone else watching you...It's what I do.. Hope this helps!
