***Speak slowly*** and ***know your material inside and out***. Dont memorize it, but be able to talk about it. Show your genuine interest in it if possible. Recognize that everyone gets nervous in front of others, and you are no different. People merely sound more eloquent because they rehearse incessantly. What has helped me this semester is truly knowing my material to be able to ***phrase it in ways that get the meaning across without the stutter***. Lastly, there is something to be said about ***annunciation***. The more I have annunciated the better my results have been since it increases my command of the presentation and the fluidity of speech.
