When I did speech and debate in highschool, I use to look over the audiences heads. It took me a while until I had it to a point where I was comfortable with all the people staring at me while I made my speech. I use to practice with all my stuffed animals. The one thing I found out while doing that, is just to barely look over their heads, look at somebody who stands out, and have a friend or family member there for you to look for, so it looks like you making eye contact with everybody in the room. Make sure you practice, and practice and mark on your speech where you are going to take a breath. It make it easier to read, and easier for others to understand what you are saying.
