You're homeschooled. You don't have to speak publicly.

I had a public speaking class back when I went to the homeschool co-op. Currently I regularly give answers of some length to each question put forth at the high school gathering for boys every other Friday (that means tonight as well, by the way, so I'll be gone from 6 to 10.)
