So idk if yours will be different, but I took it online, made sure that the fact that I stutter was in my introduction speech (while stuttering to really get the point across), and I got an A in the class. You may have to still give a speech in front of people, but for mine I got to pick 7-10 people to give a speech in front of so I chose people who know I stutter and who I feel comfortable around. Basically long story short, own it and let it be known. My professor said that in that class, he graded on the speech format more so than delivery. He knew not everyone is good at public speaking. Good luck and I hope it’s similar to my situation (:
