Today I felt humiliated Today in French class we were having an activity made by a French auxiliar the uni got. The thing is that we had to raise our hands to talk, but from a moment to another she pointed at me and asked me what I did on my holidays and this just made me uncomfortable because in the whole activity she just picked one person to talk and it was me (she knew I stutter), I just got frozen and just answered stuttering really bad that I didn't know. She started then speaking way faster and in some parts she laughed at me saying that the mouse had eaten my tongue and in some others I just couldn't understand. When I finally got to answer everyone were looking at me like if I was damn idiot. I wanted to scream at her so bad that I don't know why I didn't. This just made me not wanting to learn more languages (French at least). After that, I got out of the classroom and I felt so angry. I went to the bathroom, drank some water and even cried a bit. I got back to the classroom but I was destroyed.
