Is it a bad idea to use a nonstandard English in an Oral presentations (class)?

For a professional speaker his/her audience ALWAYS comes first.
If you are having a presentation the most important thing to do is to consider the level of (any kind of) knowledge of your listeners.
What do you consider as the use of a pres., if not REACHING your audience somehow???

Interesting point of view which had a quick and direct answer and also made me think! Thanks ! I discovered that at times like these, I have to adapt to the situation by training my weak points and not continue to rely on my strong ones.

You write very well, though (and probably speak well, I assume), so your frustration is understandable.

The skills you maybe have to develop are similar to those that your teacher probably has. Actually, you perhaps used them back when you were first learning a second language--in particular, the ability to nevertheless express yourself when vocabulary is lacking. It can occasionally even be a useful skill when speaking with native speakers. Sometimes, making things simpler can go a long way.

Anyhow, most of all, good luck finding an audience that is more suited to your level sometime soon.

"Bestist" isn't non-standard English. It is standard non-English. Up with it we will not put, to quote Churchill.
