Essay on How do you feel before giving a Presentation?

Every now and then the teacher gives such an assignment that gives us sleepless and anxious nights. That assignment is presenting your work in front of the whole class. Even the toughest of the lot, who seem the most confident are scared and anxious.

Why wouldn’t they anyone feel that way? Speaking in front of the whole class about the work that you have done can go horribly wrong and you have seen that happen. What are the odds that it would not happen to you?

The odds of it happening to you are pretty low, but the anxiety in our head seems to scream loud enough to drown out the reasonable voice. Even though we might be confident about the work that we have done, it is still scary to put yourself out there. The thing that we do not realize is that when we go in front of our classmates to present our work, we become highly vulnerable. It feels like we are giving them a piece of ourselves and telling them, “here you can play with it, but do not hurt me”, knowing very well that they might.

However, there are ways to combat this anxiety before the presentation. Yes, public speaking (even though they are just your classmates), can be tough. You can easily overcome them to present yourself to be more confident than you are actually feeling. The first key to confidence is, fake it till you make it. Sometimes it is hard to fake it, but even if you present something wrong with great confidence there is a high chance that nobody is going to realize the mistake that you have made. Confidence is the key to this question of anxiety.

Breathing, which comes to us naturally might feel like the toughest thing to do before going on to give the presentation. One trick to calm your anxiety is to concentrate on absolutely nothing and take deep breaths. The most common way of avoiding anxiety is to avoid anything which has caffeine in it. Yes, we love the caffeine rush but that is one thing that makes you the most anxious.

Giving a presentation in a classroom can be exhausting and frightening, but you have to remind yourself that you can do it. You can help yourself and cope with the anxiety. Just remember every around you is feeling just as same as you are. There is nothing that you can’t do if you put your mind and heart to it.

Pressure On Today's Students Essay Class or Std. 7

Pressure on today's Students  are at very extreme level. This essay topic are given by school for class /std. 7 thereby putting students and their parents at an extra pressure.

Notice:  As far as I know , the school teachers give always a topic to the student to write an essay. They never give any training of writing  essay. That is why students take a pressure in his mind. O.K.  Whatever may be. Here we will discuss this topic in details. 

First of all we have to know the type of pressure on today's students. I think it is very much mental, psychological and fear of success pressure on them which push them into ill mental state. Students are forced to score better from school level up to high salary job achievement. During this period of time they remain under continuous pressure. Though it can be a positive change , but not for every students. There are few students who can handle the pressure because of their God gifted intellect, but every student has not got that equally. Therefore the guardians have to handle their children intelligently  by diagnosing the potential of their children. It has been notice that the student who has study stress; are less active mentally and by performing potential. This type of student accumulates quantity of tasks and thereby also gather pressure. It is better for them to start completing task one by one irrespective of completing all tasks in one day.

I am not arguing negatively the positive outcome of potential talent, and spark children’s creativity under stress. It is a fact that high inner creativity of students come out under stress. Therefore my assessment of pressure is not for these type of students, but for average students of the society.

Stress or pressure on the students has many sources. Examination pressure and too much study pressure on students are the two main sources of stress on the students. Except these their are small factors which we seldom take in account , but these are also damaging the natural process of living of today's students. Out of them I am mentioning few factors here.  English medium teachers are very much habituate to give a topic of letter writing , paragraph writing, essay writing , work book tasks etc. This is not a problem. Actual problem is that they do not give a good lecture about this topic, so that students get starting help for writing better articles. It is my experience that average students need starting stimulus information to start any writing.   Too much home work is another compelling pressure on students psyche. Now a days students are subjected to execute study as per set goal by their parents. Ultimately the education has become high paying job oriented. These factors are producing huge pressure on todays children. The schools are pressurising students to give high quality results for achiving and justifying their business. In class 6 level they are enhancing the course material equal to class 7. In this way the normal and natural living of students has vanished thereby causing real developement of student as per their intrinsic hidden potential .
