My English Speech

Today during the class time, I was told by my teacher to give a speech. I felt really terrible, I have been memorizing my speech for a week now but I felt I was still not prepared well. My hands were wet. The teacher said there was nothing to worry and I started. Standing in front of the classmates, I can feel my heart was beating so fast.
I nearly froze and almost to die. Then the first word came out and then the second finally I finished my speech. My teacher said that I talked too fast. I should relax. Hopefully, next time I can do it better. Although I am English major I still have a lot of things to learn.
