<human>:  How can I get over my fear of public speaking?
<bot>: One of the best ways to get over your fear of public speaking is to build your confidence by practicing. Start by giving short presentations to family and friends in a comfortable setting. As your confidence grows, try giving presentations in front of larger, unfamiliar audiences. Additionally, try to focus on the content of your presentation and take deep breaths to relax. Remember, practice makes perfect and don’t be afraid to make mistakes — everyone does!
