You should be answering everytime in your head anyway, when he is calling on other students (or writing the answer down). I love learning foreign languages, so maybe not the best person to answer. But don't forget to write write write - it is a necessary part of learning a language. And read out loud to yourself whenever possible, with your best Spanish accent, when doing homework. Have fun with it!
There are disability services where a student with a physical or psychological disability can get accommodations for class b/c of that disability, but then I feel like I'm labeled as "disabled". I'm already labeled as mentally ill, I don't know how I'll feel about being labeled as "disabled" as well.
