The main idea of her talk is how she was able to overcome the challenge of learning English when she couldn't understand anything and speak it as well as others. She didn't want that to define her so she decided to work really hard, and they started seeing the real her. In her speech, she wants the people to know that others don't shape who you are, you do.

When I was younger, I taught piano to underprivileged kids. This was a volunteer program, so lessons were done in a tiny, dusty room behind a school gym. Imagine a room just big enough to fit a piano and a small bench. One of my students, Andrew, he was a great piano player. He kind of looked like the kid from Home Alone. Blonde hair, blue eyes, ears that stuck out a little bit. Andrew always played well during our lessons, but when he had to play in front of people, he get extremely nervous. Sometimes he'd ...

Hello everyone. The theme of today is beating the odds. And when people hear that, they often imagine something dramatic.A big victory, a huge obstacle, and a powerful comeback story. But today, I want to talk about a quieter kind of beating God. A kind that happens inside you.A kind that does not look always impressive on the outside but changes everything on the inside. So when people hear the words public speaking, they mostly assume that the biggest challenge is fear, stage fright, sweaty palms, and for ...

This piece of paper has been the dream of your parents, the pride of our families, and the symbol of your hard work. But let me ask you a question. If this piece of paper could not give you confidence, could not give you a voice, could not make you stand in a room and be heard, then what is its real power.Because in real world people don't follow certificates, though don't remember marks, they remember your presence. Hello, my name is Sam Shaw. I'm a certified leadership coach, public speaker, and founder a ...

At a time of environmental crisis, sanitary crisis, and technological crisis, never has humanity been so afraid to speak. Let's be serious for a second. At first glance, this affirmation seems absurd, right.What does, for example, climate change have to do with glossophobia, the fear of public speaking. Yet to me, this is no coincidence. It is a symptom. It is a signal that we've lost something essential.Our connection with what makes us human. You know there was a time when Aristotle placed humans above al ...

I remember the first time I ever gave a speech because of how badly it went or how badly it didn't go. It was for a piano recital that my mother had signed me up for. I was about 7 years old and I chose a poem that I liked as a seven-year-old.But while watching other people perform their own original poetry, I was afraid. I was worried about how I would compare. So when it became my turn to perform, I hid behind my mother's skirt while she recited the poem that I had chosen.The truth is public speaking is h ...
