Did anyone else mistakenly get put into an extra reading help class due to your stutter? I was always a VERY great reader for my age growing up. I wasn’t good at talking… obviously since I’m in this sub lol… and I was anxious socially due to my stutter so I escaped in books. My stutter isn’t like a porky pig stutter. I don’t get stuck on the first letter, I just open my mouth and can’t physically get the word out so when I’d read aloud in school it would seem like I didn’t know what the word was but in reality I couldn’t make it come out of my mouth. Instead of waiting for me to finally get the word out, the teacher would say it for me. I was eventually put into a pull out class in 4th grade for students who needed extra reading help despite having been in speech through the school since I started school. I was very quickly taken out as I guess they could tell that I did know how to read I just couldn’t speak lol! Did anyone else have a similar experience?
