ive been having this problem for a while. during my classes im really nervous about answering questions out loud while a teacher is lecturing. for a long time, i would just sit quietly and not answer anything. whenever i thought about the answer and it turned out right, i'd regret not saying it out loud. i got better recently, i actually started to blurt out answers here and there. but 2 days ago, a few of the answers i yelled out were wrong. then i blurted out a really embarassing answer and felt like a total idiot. the whole class laughed @ my answer. it also didnt help that the guy who im always trying to compete w/ for the better grade got a near perfect score on an exam while i got a low B.
advice on how to grow balls?

Start off by telling yourself that the classroom is not a competition. You're obviously afraid of being wrong. It's perfectly OK to be wrong once in a while. It's how we learn better. The only reason why you get embarassed is because you care a little too much. It's not wrong to care, at all. You think that any slight imperfections might jeopardize your grade.
