Assess your material. Is it good? Are you proud of your work? If your answer is yes then gather some confidence from that. Practice! Give your presentation in front of a mirror, to your roomie or even to your goldfish. If you know your material you will gain confidence. Remember that nearly everyone is nervous when giving presentations. Even some very famous actors and actresses have awful stage fright through out their careers. It's natural to be nervous. Try to channel that energy into your presentation. Get plenty of rest before your presentation. Of course before had stay away from things that might disagree with you. Your class mates, if they also have to make presentations, are likely just as nervous as you are. When you are doing it make eye contact with those you are speaking too. As you do silently remind yourself that they are in the same boat as you. Good luck!
