You are a little bit nervous because you don’t like speaking in public. You would rather just listen, but your teacher has explained that everyone in the group should contribute to the discussion.Choose the best way to be a good participant.

A good participant can prepare by thinking about what matters to them and taking notes, then contribute when there is a natural opening.

Take notes and find a good time to speak up,” is the best approach; being aggressive or speaking only when you agree is not helpful.
