Go through with it and do your speaking part. I’ve been there. I hated group projects and presentations when I was in college, but I firmly believe don’t them benefited me in the long run. You can’t hide in a closet your whole life. You’re going to have to eventually communicate effectively in your grad school/job interviews, work career, etc. Doing presentations helped me get past that fear, proved to me I could do it, and that I wasn’t a slave to my stutter. A few things that always helped me: * Practice in front of a mirror until you can say it confidently. Practicing in front of family or friends helps, too. Know what you’re going to say and which sounds you’re going to avoid. * If your professors grade like mine did, you’ll be graded on eye contact with the audience. Pick a spot on people’s foreheads, just above the eyes. It’ll look like you’re making eye contact but without the added “nervousness” that direct eye contact may bring. This works well on 1st dates, too. My wife was blown away when I told her I used that technique on our first few dates; she had no clue. * Use a relaxation technique before leaving for class and right before you present. Mine was tensing every muscle group as hard as I could for ten seconds, releasing, and imagining the tension leaving my body. Start at the head, neck, arms, chest, core, legs, then feet. It sounds silly but it worked. You got this 👊
