Because of anxiety, I spoke with a teacher once who agreed to have me videotape and then play it for the class - this may be an option for you - truthfully, I wouldn't personally do it again as it was...

Been there :( Are you saying your teachers give a poor grade and take your speech issue as a factor in doing so???...

It's normal! Most people feel nervous when speaking as non-native speakers to someone new who knows the language. Feel free to pop over at the discord server if you need to practice, lots of native an...

Hey, it does sound like a confidence thing to me. Have you ever tried speaking in English with a non-native speaker? Especially one who may not be as fluent? It may be a starting point for you to prac...

I would suggest attending social events like on meetup & ask questions or even give talks. Quite sure one is happening in your client's vicinity every evening....

I hated high school for this reason, being social is so damn important to everyone. Until it’s over. Then all those people leave your life and only the select few that actually give a shit hang around...

In highschool I had the same problems, but I joined the theater program at my school and that really helped me when it came to my public speaking skills. Now that I'm 22 and out of school I've noticed...

I made my final English presentation and boy it was rough, so much so I twist my head to see my prof shake her head 😳. Got through it and bless her got a good grade; aced that class. That was a bad o...

I got so many zeroes doing the same. I even spoiled my relation with my English teacher by skipping every oral related stuffs saying i forgot about the presentation etc. I feel u bro. Soon my school i...

I had a similar experience when I was at school. I was in a bad place with my stutter and rather than give an oral presentation I took the 0 mark. It feels really hard at the moment but thing's *will*...

Nervous about a play tomorrow

Nervous about a play tomorrow Hello everyone Tomorrow my class is rehearsing Romeo and Juliet and I'm the narrator. Since I'm the narrator I have to go up to the front of class (its not on a stage) ...

That sounds so cool, congrats! And that's crazy, it's so rare that I meet another stutterer, let alone at a internship. I'm also dreading the poster presentations at the end of the internship, but I ...

Your name is the hardest word to say because you can't change it, or at least that is something that I have heard. I tried to do Spanish in school but it was too difficult and nerve-racking. There was...

My stutter is pretty much the same. I say um a lot because it’s what helps me. I’m a teenager and I’m applying for a summer job. I’ve realized that I don’t stutter when I say some5hing that I’ve repe...

I know the pain of oral exams too well. Remember to breath, and be confident even through your stutter (incase you do). Good luck :)...

I had to take public speaking when I went to college. First day of class I told my teacher I couldn’t do it and started crying. Fast forward to the end of the quarter; it was my favorite class I’ve ev...

No, what I meant was, is that it's just relievers that give meveasy stuff. All my normal teachers are fine....

Talk with your parents. If you're getting easier assignments in school because you stutter, your parents should talk to the teachers and explain them that you're just as capable as everyone else. Also...

I’m still young so I don’t have too many “haunting” stories but one thing I hate is speaking Irish (or Gaeilge) I live in Ireland and it’s mandatory for us to do Irish at school and every time I’ve ...
