Everyone here has great tips, but as an ESL teacher, here's a couple I use. * The "uh-" bounce trick that the King in the King's Speech used. Like if you're going to stutter on boat, say "uh-BOAT", m...

Below are a few tricks that I use sometimes, note however that they are merely tricks and once your brain gets used to them, you need to switch it up again. * Lead what you read with your finger or p...

Hey. I've stuttered for more than 20 years. But I don't stutter while reading, but I used to. I can tell you what helped me. 1. Initially, you should aim for a steady rhythm at a low speaking rate. I...

Hello, future teacher here! I just wanted to wish you luck in your future endeavors. I surprisingly never stutter when it comes to presentations and such, even though I get extremely nervous beforehan...

There are companies out there who are willing to train you and give you a job too. Just make sure truck driving is for you and that you like it. If not, don't bother it will frustrate you. Good luck....

I'm lucky I 'came out of my shell' in my teens, it helped my stutter for years. It's all about courage, perseverance and a fucktonne of legwork, but give it a try. It can be an embarrassing experience...
