Speaker 1: What's the matter, Charlie Brown? My teacher assigned me an oral report. I'm terrible at oral reports, Linus. Every time I get up in front of the class, my legs shake, my hands sweat, and my stomach begins to hurt. I always end up making a fool of myself. Maybe you just need to be better prepared, Charlie Brown. A fear of public speaking is most likely rooted in unpreparedness. What are you talking about? I've had more practice at making a fool of myself than anyone I know. I couldn't be more prepared. Good grief. I'm doomed. This is it. I'm saved. I'm saved. Yay. Shh. Step 1. Loosen up the body. Muscle tension will drain energy from effective speech delivery. Gee, that's easy enough to do. I feel sort of silly. I'm getting it. Step 2. Poor enunciation can ruin oral presentation. Practice this list of tongue twisters to limber up the tongue. Peter Pickles. He's a great teacher. Peter Picker piped a pickle. Er, I mean, seashells sold Sally's seashores. Ahem. Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. Sally sold seashells by the seashore. This is easy. Step 3. Visualize success. See yourself delivering the perfect presentation. I can see it. I'm really visualizing. I'm visualizing. You were right, Linus. All I needed was preparation. And I prepared all weekend long at the library. This report will be a piece of cake. I'm up next. Visualize. Visualize. Here goes. Ahem. Ahem. Sally pickled Peter at the seashore. Ah.
