Your classmates are wrong. This was a victory for you! You should be proud of yourself. It takes a lot of courage to give a presentation, even for fluent speakers. You didn’t screw up anything. You cr...

I don’t understand why we are not allowed to advertise? I am a coach who helps people stop stuttering for FREE. I am an ex stutterer so that is the reason I help people, because I know how debilitating stuttering is. It makes no sense that we are not allowed to advertise to change lives for free?
