End of June Question #5

Here we go, ladies and gents. Burning question number cinco:

Have you ever performed or spoken in front of an audience of more than ten people?

Auntie M says: Yes. I don't especially like it but I have done it several times.
As a child, I was painfully shy and a nervous wreck having to recite in class or give a book report.


Sandy says: yep with you every week and also at aerobics! :)



Septembermom says: In September, I'm going to be a rookie CCD teacher. That should be an interesting audience. I better start working on some engaging material :)


Jill says: I always hated public speaking too. Now I do it all the time.


My answer: I did a few dance performances, performed in a Les Miserables reader's theater, have spoken before large crowds (up to 200,) and am a teacher.  Like many of you, I dreaded speaking before others. but now it's no big deal.

  3. Auntie M: And now you're a pro! I empathize with those childhood feelings--I was the same way.

    Sandy: You are great at both! I have a personal testimony.

  6. septembermom: You will be such a great CCD teacher! What age group will you be teaching?

    Jill: It gets easier, doesn't it. when you believe in/for what you're speaking about. You've taught me a lot already through your writing.

You won't be paid for it, but at least you'll know that you have contributed intelligence to the universe...
