Could Fear To Talk Or Socialize Be Due To Social Anxiety?

I think i have Social Anxiety. When I'm at school I'm scared of people. I'M not scared they're going to hurt me, I'm scared to talk or socialize with them. When i have to read out loud i get scared and i mess up my reading and my heart pumps so fast. When a teacher talks to me my face gets really red, I start to sweat, I get shaky and my heart beats really fast.

Just the other day i embarrassed myself because my teacher said " if your partner is not here today raise your hand". I raised my hand and she asked me who my partner was and i just stared at her. I just got really nervous and i don't know why, she ended up having to repeat herself.

Sometimes when i walk through the hall ways I feel like every one is staring at me in a bad way. I feel like this because a year ago i got my hair cut really short and people started calling me a boy. I moved from that school not to long ago because of military reasons but i still have the same feeling here, and my hair is much longer. DO i have social anxiety?
