Should presenting be added as an official component in ES1102?

Presentation has always been one of my biggest fears. 

I never liked speaking in front of a crowd as it makes me much more self-conscious than normal, causing me to be nervous. Thus, I am very thankful that ES1102 has allowed me a chance to present my essay in which helped me extract the main points of my essay. Furthermore, it has allowed me to understand my essay better when trying to condense the content and contextualize the problem, bringing it to the level of my peers.

Therefore, my answer to this question would be: Yes, if a presentation segment was to be added into ES1102, it would definitely give students more practice and room to make mistakes in order to improve. Yet, I do not feel that it should be graded as this would only add pressure onto students considering that the module has many other required assignments. I feel the main purpose of the presentation should be to let students gain a better understanding of what is written, as normally people are able to relate better to talking about the topic that interest them, and a form of exposure to presentation rather than a graded presentation.
