Does teaching Jr high classes count? When I was a child my mother made me take elecution lessons and I had to give recitations at church events. Otherwise as an adult, I once gave a short speech at daughter's wedding reception. It went well enough.
I have done a few and they all went well even thought I had stage fright at first. Once I got into it...all went well.
No a presentation but two performance as part of two different singing groups. Both were in high school...one for our daytime assembly and the other for our Orange and Blue, a night time program where families were in attendance.
The night of the O & B, my bra came loose just as we were about to go on stage! Thankfully someone was able to hook it back up pretty quickly and we did our thing. I have stage fright but being part of a group makes it easier to handle.
Yes, I once had to give a drug abuse lecture to supervisors at NSA headquarters in Maryland. I wasn't told how large the audience was but when I was escorted to a stage and looked out at the auditorium, there must have been 150 supervisors. I had given lots of similar lectures, but this was my largest audience. It went very well, they gave me a nice letter of appreciation.
John are you from Maryland? In 2018 I left MD to move to Tennessee. Very rural area, but close to I 40. Laid back and quiet. I love it. I still have 4 sons and 4 grandchildren in MD.
Yes, I lived in Anne Arundel County for 35 years, retired in '92 and moved to South Dakota. I try not to go back, but I do have 2 nieces and a brother still living there.
I did it a few times in front of a large group of young people like myself when I was in my 20's with a singles group I was running for office with. Next time was in my late 30's or early 40's. In front of a group of real estate agents, I was also licensed, but not for long but I was in charge of getting their reports. I had what I later found out were some of the highest producing agents in the company. Never let that bother be. They all liked me, so it wasn't too brutal.
Over the years I addressed many other groups, including the short time I managed a real estate office. Management was not for me. I much more liked being an agent and teaching others how to manage bank foreclosures and Relocation properties. I was good at taking new agents and teach them t how to be good agents.
