The most embarrassing experience was in junior high school when I was ordered to attend an English speech and read a poem on the stage. I haven't read it before I came on stage. I mix it up with Pinyin when I couldn't pronounce it, and pretended to be immersed in it. The judges were all looking at each other in silence. I was really embarrassed.

My only English speech was in five or six grade at primary school, it was about introducing my hometown. That’s my first time to make a formal speech on the stage and I got the second place. I’m very happy that time. Later I saw many excellent speakers and I thought I’m not good enough then I missed many chances. Now I still love English very much, I want to learn more so that I can express myself more frequently and correctly at anytime.

When I was a junior student,I became a presenter in the studio station of our school,and the teacher encouraged me to participate a speech competiton on safety of the primary and secondary students beteween whole ShunDe district.It was the first time to have a speech in a professional stage,even though it's an Chinese speech.
For this competition,I prepared 2 weeks,I started practising hardly in front of the mirror.I attempted to told myself it doesn't matter,I shouldn't be serious nervous.I believed I can do it.
But when the day came,I really stand on the stage,my legs were shaking all the time,even at the middle of my speech,I forgot my text content,and the audience clapped their hands enthusiasm in order to relief my embarrassed.
Luckily,I remenbered what should I speak eventually,although I haven't wen the prize,I was still grateful for this competition,at least,I got an opportunity to improve my ability of the speech in public.

@Icy In order to be confident, as a speaker, you must bear some guidelines in mind. The fisrt one is "to be fully prepared". But do not rely too much on it. A good speaker is fully prepared, and a bad speaker is never prepared. However, a perfect speaker is half prepared, since you need to adapt yourself according to your audience feedback. The second rule is "not to expect perfection." Nobody is perfect. If you learn some from the speaking, this is great. The third is "to think positively". And the last one is to "acquire speaking experience as much as you can." Make public speaking a common thing in your life like breakfast. Your nerveousness will be reduced a lot if you put all those rule in pratice in your real life. Keep speaking, and growing.

My most embarrassing speech is the one I made when I was a freshman. The topic of that speech is "your dream about your future ".It's totally uncomfortable.
Before that speech, I made a lot of preparation including writing the paper and revising it for many times, practicing it foe many times.And I think I could deliver my speech easily. It seemed that I was not afraid of it.
However, when I stood on the stage, all the judges, audiences were looking at me. My head was empty in a sudden. I totally forget my words. Also I felt my tongue was very dry, and I could not make a sound. Then I just said a few sentences before I left the stage. So you see, my first speech was a totally a failure. I was too nervous, too afraid of the stage. It's a great embarrassment.
In my later studies, I overcome my nervousness bit by bit. Now even though I still couldn't relax myself totally, I improved a lot. Still couldn't forget my first failing speech, which taught me really a lot.
Thank you
