02br
00 i feel very easy to speak in english about a general topic when i speak alone at home and i feel quite confident.i don't stammer or feel nervous.but when i stand before a handfull of audience or some strangers where my performance is expected, i don't get it in the usual way i do at home. 02br

00 my words fight with each other , i become nervous and less confident and most of the times i end up with unclear speech. 02br
02br
00 so, friends please tell how i can get rid of this. 0-

0Hello Prathesha! Lots of people have this sort of stage fear and as CJ says, it would get better with experience only. I have a small tip for you. Try and keep your sentences short & simple. This way, you will commit less grammatical errors and it will also help you to convey your ideas to the audiences, without much complication. 050010id1

00You can also practise in front of a mirror. And when you speak in front of an audience, maybe you can focus on one or two persons, it'll help make the "crowd" less anonymous. 0-

00The best way to improve vocabulary is reading. As to your new words, I'd say first learn to use them in the regular way, before you start to innovate05002br
00Once you've learned a new word, maybe you can visit the Cambridge site, and memorize how it is used? Or google the word, and see in which contexts it is used. 02br
