  Case: Trembling Hands
I have a terrible habit that I just cannot seem to conceal. When I'm nervous about just about anything my hands start to tremble. I've noticed I even do this in front of my students. Sometimes I'll just hold my hands together, but I think thats just about as bad. Any recommendations on how to deal with this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have had the same problem in the past. Something that has helped me is to bring a binder portfolio of things I KNOW I have implemented in the classroom extremely well. Not only does this boost my confidence and give me something to talk about, but it also preoccupies my interviewers so they are not just staring at me. They are flipping through my portfolio while talking. It seems to make the environment much more relaxed.
