Every person can be a good public speaker

Keep these things in mind:

People remember stories, not facts. Try to make your points through a story, rather than rattling off the facts.
Don't try to speak like everyone else. Your unique style is really an advantage. Speak the same way you would to a friend. Carry yourself the way you usually would, and don't try to censor yourself, like not allowing yourself to smile or laugh.
Being nervous can actually help you. It gives you adrenaline, focus, and the ability to perform at your highest level.
