Hey,
I read your post and you mentioned your shy. Sometimes it helps to find some common ground to use as an "ice-breaker" of some sort when talking to new people. In addition to trying here, which you could, you should also try talking to people before/after class/tutorials. Hopefully you and them have some time afterward to have a quick but decent enough chat to see if you'd like to continue talking to them!
Best,
Humza
