I39。m always worrying about flies or worms（蟲） ing up the glass, Webber explains. I am also worried that someday a dog will e up from behind and run off with the food.

According to a study, there are 3 of every 4 people having such a problem. The conclusion is a bit surprising and worrying, as most jobs require some speaking ability.

When it39。s time to speak, a good oldfashioned smile is the best to draw your class into your speech. Be happy, because you39。re about to teach your class something they don39。t know before. Studies have shown that smiles are infectious. That means once you smile, it39。s hard for everyone else not to smile. So if you want your speech to go off well, smile. That will make everyone smile and maybe those smiles will make you actually smile. Make eyes contact. It39。s so boring to listen to a speaker who looks at the floor or at note cards. Relax. Your class is made up of your friends and you talk to them all the time. Talk the same way now. Have a look at every person in the classroom at least once. That way, everyone will feel like you39。re municating with them. Also, you39。ll look like you know what you are talking about. Use hand motions. Move you hand along as you talk, using them to express your
