I have just completed my masters and have just been accepted to transfer to the second year of a PhD (in English Lit.) Although I am very excited about doing a PhD and feel very confident about my topic/research, I am a nervous person and still get quite intimidated by supervisors/ speaking in seminars etc/ being asked questions in presentations etc. I was wondering if anyone else doing a PhD had the same problem, I am going to a conference in September and i am really nervous about it (although i am not even presenting). Also, I will be taking undergraduate tutorials next year and even this terrifies me! Any advice? I'm starting to wonder if I should take a year off to grow up a bit.. (I'm only 22)
