Question

11. Cite text evidence that explains why glossophobia can

Answer 1

Answer:

Text evidence that explains why glossphobia can be overcome by practice is the idiom 'practice makes perfection' .

Explanation:

Glossophobia is the fear of public speaking. It is anxiety disorder that makes one to tremble shakes, sweat, or even run away during public speaking. It can not actually be cured but can be overcome by practising public speaking in one's privacy, practising speaking to a select few etc. The main way to overcome i s by psychotherapy, whereby one's fear pf the cause is eliminated and replaced by reassuring of positive feelings.

Example of this might include :

Instead of thinking “I can’t make any mistakes,” accept that all people make mistakes or have omissions when presenting. This is alright as most of the time the audience is not even aware of them.

Instead of “Everyone will think I’m incompetent,” focus on the fact that the audience wants you to succeed. Then remind yourself that your prepared material is great and that you know it well.

Once one has identified one's fears,then practice presenting to small, supportive groups will be the next step. As your confidence grows, built up to larger audience.
