100%! In my experience, being open and honest about my stutter has resulted in getting really strong grades during presentations. Although it may be “uncomfortable” to listen to and I may take longer ...

I would. In my experience teachers have been very understanding of it, even offering to allow me to give presentations to just them. If you have an IEP (in The is) that can bolster your claim if there...

Should I tell my teacher about my stutter?

It doesn't hurt to ask. When I don't feel confident in my speech I ask the teacher If I can present in another way like writing something instead, record myself or presenting infront of just a few fri...

No, no one else in my family stutters. And right now I’ve been quarantined so no school. And school actually makes me feel better mentally. I don’t go back until the 20th either. Cuz there is this t...

Got an overall 8 in IELTS a couple of years ago with 7 in speaking. I was nervously confident going in but stuff went south pretty quickly. The examiner asked if I was anxious and I stated I’m a stutt...
