Toastmaster as a stutterer? Hi everyone, I’ve been looking to improve my public speaking and leadership skills for years. Recently, I thought about joining a Toastmasters club, but I have a stutter that becomes worse under pressure, especially when speaking in public or introducing myself. Has anyone with a similar experience joined Toastmasters? How did it help you? I’d appreciate any advice. Thanks!
