“Briefly share your feelings and/or attitudes about public speaking
(fears, successes, failures, challenges, etc.) Use examples.”
Unlike most people, I am not too afraid of speaking in public as long as I know the topic. My fear comes into play generally only for stuff like school assignments where I am forced to speak on a subject that I have relatively no knowledge or interest. Not saying that this is a big issue, just that it can be uncomfortable.
If I have to give a speech, I would prefer it be on a topic of my choosing. Then the only I problem I face is the length of the speech. One time in a previous educational setting, I gave a 15 minutes speech on the animation director/innovator Ralph Bakshi in a presentation that was supposed to be 10 minutes. No one in the audience complained at all, however I was graded accordingly.
