Hey! Kudos to you for not choosing a less communicative career path despite having a stutter. Being a teacher is hard, especially when you're a person who stutters. I'm not formally a teacher, but like any other communicative profession, the first step is accepting your stutter and not getting too anxious about it because it's just your accent and nothing else. The next step is what the top comment here alluded to: preparing and making sure you concisely understand your content (ie: can you explain this to a 5-year-old?). In this, step 1 here is much harder than step 2. That's why I created the first Slack-based community for professionals who stutter that's completely free. We launched a few months ago and already have close to 200 professionals who stutter already including teachers - join for free if you're interested ([www.stutterfreely.com](https://www.stutterfreely.com)). The reason why I mention this is because meeting other professionals who stutter helps you build more acceptance in your speech which is oftentimes the first step in making any change. From there, you can start improving your preparation, and combined, you'll become a much more effective teacher despite having a stutter. Cheers to personal growth and feel free to message me on Reddit if you have any questions :)
