Yeah, I think it would have definitely helped if the speech therapist explained why were using the rudimentary materials. Although when I was younger I had a lot of frustration and anger built up as a result of my stutter. Thankfully due to a very supportive family and friends. I came to terms with it and tried to improve it steadily. I tried to talk to more people rather than staying silent. Even when I stuttered and would see that expression on their faces like "Come one get it out what do you wanna say", I pushed on and I think Im better for it. I would recommend introducing articles for topics that they themselves find interesting. Also wanted to know what were the perquisites for someone to be a speech therapist. As I would like to helps others as my therapists helped me
