I have stuttered my entire life and it truly eats at me at times, but it's something you have to own. My junior year of high school I had to give a 45 minute presentation in my psychology class. We could pick any topic of our choice and which day we presented. I fucking chose stuttering and to be the second person to give a speech. Why? Because I owned my stutter and decided I was done hiding from it. You own this shit or it will own you. There are going to be times in life when you're going to have to speak up. Don't hide behind teachers or professors, they aren't going to be there when it's time to speak up about something important. I'm now in college and have given multiple presentations. I actually end up being the person who knows the most and ends up having to talk the most in my group projects. I'll mess up lines and stumble over shit. I fucking laugh it off in front of everyone and tell everyone to bear with me jokingly. Some people laugh to be mean, but fuck'em! Hell, when discussing our weaknesses while giving speeches in class I made sure to mention my stutter half jokingly/seriously. You could use your stutter to calm others and yourself. I've had group members freak out because they *might* stutter or mess up. I always counter with "you're worried about a might, I know my ass is going to fuck up multiple times. I'll be sure to make you look good up there!" TL;DR: Don't hide from this. Own it or it will own you.
