Practice Essay 4 - TOEFL iBT Writing (part 2) Secondly, I tried to push me into situations when speaking in public was required. Perhaps this was the most difficult part because I had to deal with anxiety before and during my presentations. Despite feeling uncomfortable many times, eventually, I got used to being in front of my class talking about different topics. I wasn’t the only one who had to overcome the same fear in my class. Actually, a friend of mine had also struggled when she had to speak in front of us. The most interesting thing about her situation was that she was the president of our class. Later, my friend told me she accepted that leading role because she wanted to challenge herself and overcome her fear. If she had not stepped out of her comfort zone, she wouldn’t find out what she was capable of. In summary, I could overcome my fear of speaking in public by writing about it and pushing me into situations that involved to be exposed in front of others. I would appreciate any corrections.

In English we can also use "where" instead of when (in this sentence). To modify what you wrote: Secondly, I tried to push myself into situations where speaking in public was required. Also, take out the comma after "eventually". It should read: Despite feeling uncomfortable many times, eventually I got used to being in front of my class talking about different topics. You should say "a leading role" instead of "that leading role". Remember, it's always: pushing myself, not pushing me. In your last sentence, it should be: In summary, I could overcome my fear of speaking in public by writing about it and pushing myself into situations that involve (not involved) being exposed to the public.
