in an 100+ person lecture and the professor thought it was a good idea to let all of us present a fun fact one by one. my heart automatically starts BEATING and i’m practicing my lines over and over and then it’s my turn and my voice shakes so bad. probably unintelligible at this point. the professor says she can’t hear me and tells me to stand up + speak louder. i literally do neither and sigh because i want this to be over already. someone eventually says what i said for me and i was hoping it was over with. but then she asks me if there’s anything else i’d like to add?? and i just shake my head no because god forbid i speak again. can teachers/professors not tell when someone is nervous/anxious? or do they just not care??? even for the densest of people it would be obvious i was scared out of my ass and did not want to do this
