Most colleges require students to request "accommodations" prior to the beginning of the semester thru the disabilities office. Individual instructors aren't allowed to make accommodations without authorization from the disabilities office.

So, you might be out of luck for this presentation, unless your instructor is merciful to your last minute plea. Be prepared for your instructor not to buy your story, though. If you haven't mentioned a hearing problem until now, and you don't wear hearing aids, then you could be perceived as just trying to cover up your stage fright or lack of preparation.

Live and learn, eh?
