It's a learnable skill.
I am an introvert who was living with my parents until I was 27. I then trained to be a teacher and that forced me to develop a presence and a personality in front of people. Now I'm deputy chair of a political debate group.
Tips:
1) Don't look nervous. Feeling nervous inside is normal but you have to project calm with body language. Control what you can control.
2) Ignore minor mistakes. Everyone makes these all the time. Keep the big picture in mind and plough on
