Start: "Hello everyone my name is ______, and I am here to talk to you about myself." Middle: Include things you like to do. Your interests. End: "That's a little about me and I can't wait to learn about the rest of you (classmates)."

Here are some good beginnings to speeches: "My friends, I don't know whether you realize that I have just been shot, but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose." -- Teddy Roosevelt "You may all be wondering how it is that I look so comfortable up here. Well, the answer is that when I was in college, I took a public speaking class." -- Kurt Vonnegut "Thank you. I-I don't know why they would have me at this kind of rally 'cause ... (He clears his throat) ... Excuse me, I'm not essentially a political comedian at all." -- Woody Allen So helpful!

Well I'd start with a "Hey everybody my name is ...... And hopefully by the end of my time here I will be a successful ...... " and just keep going on about what you hope to gain from your college experience and what made you decide to go there. Hope that helps!

Hi, this is me. Take a good look at me, cos I won`t be talking for long, I have to squeeze myself into 3 minutes. That should get them chuckling at the outset. It`s the best way to make them laugh at the start. It wins them over straightaway.

Unaccustomed as I am to public acclaim...... then pause and say "Seriously, I'm not used to talking about myself." Then start talking about yourself.
