Is it normal to use hand gestures while talking?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes—using your hands while you talk is completely normal. Gestures can help you express yourself, emphasize a point, or find the words you’re looking for.

Lots of people gesture while talking, often without thinking about it. Your hands might underline a point, show the size or shape of something, or keep moving because your thoughts are moving too.

Some people gesture a lot, and others barely do; both are ordinary. Unless your gestures are getting in the way or bothering you, there’s nothing you need to change.
