Great post. I think each stutterer needs to find their own way out at the end of the day. Lately, i've just been observing all my abnormal behaviour and asking myself "what would a person without a...

thanks, i really appreciate it =) ...

Feel free to send me a message anytime you need help. It could be about teaching or otherwise. Living overseas takes some adjustment, but it's well worth the rewards. One of my students had a heavy st...

first, thanks for adding to this thread. 2nd, very interesting. I'll take heed of your advice about letting the client/student speak as much as they can and only interrupting and helping them out wi...

Different role made sense for me - I didn't stutter when I spoke English because when I spoke it I was something different.Then when I moved to USA for a year as an exchange student I started to stutt...

Bilingual folks who stutter

Bilingual folks who stutter are you more fluent with one language than the next? I am and I honesty don't understand why. I speak pretty well in english but struggle speaking my native language. Anybo...
