The beginning of my essay. I will appreciate your correcting my mistakes. Thanks.
Fear of speaking in public is one of the most commonly held fears. Even the thought of standing in front of large audience can send shivers down the spine of most people. However, there are some tried and tested techniques which might help conquer stage fright and sail through any nerve-wracking presentation.

The beginning of my essay. I will appreciate your correcting my mistakes. Thanks.
Fear of speaking in public is one of the most commonly held fears. Even the thought of standing in front of a large audience can send shivers down the spine of most people. However, there are some tried and tested techniques which might help you conquer stage fright and sail through any nerve-wracking presentation.Personally, I prefer "shivers down the spines of most people." But obviously many native speakers are fine with the singular "spine." Also, as the others have suggested, I think "you" should be inserted before "help." To my ear, it's optional with "help conquer," but sounds strange if omitted before "sail through." So
techniques which might help conquer stage fright <-- this sounds okay
techniques which might help sail through any nerve-wracking presentation <-- sounds strange
