That isn't a nice comment to make by your professor. I know many professors who can't pronounce things right, lol. As long as you know what you are talking about it should be sufficient.
I think it wasn't quite fair to begin with. Didn't you say somebody else put some additional pieces into your part of the presentation and you didn't know about it until it was time for the group presentation? I had trouble, too, when presenting. It's hard to do in a foreign language. Fortunately, my law education and court experience taught me how to fake knowledge and to draw attention away from weak points during Q&A. I hate public speaking (probably why I switched careers away from law, lol) but I always got pushed into presenting for the group or do most of the talking, when I took classes for my degree here in the US. Still happens.
