This week I asked you to read chapter 2 from the eText (“Building Your Confidence”) as well as the article “Five Reasons Everyone Should Take a Public Speaking Course” by Jeremiah Massengale. Which pieces of advice/guidance do you think are the most helpful? Which reasons for taking a public speaking course (outlined in Massengale’s article) do you find to be most compelling? What, if anything, makes you nervous about public speaking? What strategies have you used in the past to help you overcome your nervousness? You do not need to answer all of these questions. They are simply designed as a jumping off point for your post.
