I have a mive fear of reading aloud and it's ruining my confidence :\?

its perfectly normal to be afriad. my sister is terrifed. so much so to the point that she starts to sweat and sometimes she can get physically ill. so i started her out small with poetry. i told her to read it to herself first. then read it aloud in a quiet room to herself. then as she begins to speak more clearly she moved on to our neighbors dog, her dolls, me both me and my sister, our family, and then finally her teacher until she spoke in front of the cl. she's very confident in her ability now but when it's a BIG crowd she'll get nervous and have to take a breath. so just follow this advice and breath. and most importantly remember that ... it will all be over soon
