What solves stuttering is being able to devote yourself to hearing the world around you (excluding your speech). You need to "hear" the sounds around you more than the things you say yourself. You don...

Thanks for your reply. I have been slowing down my speech and I think it has improved how people perceive my speech....

Hey man I faced this same issue a couple of years ago. Thoughts are different from what we use to speak. Words are subconscious, so there is no need to think about what you want to say while talking. ...

Something that has really helped me as a PwS

Something that has really helped me as a PwS I have been calling up different stores in my city and asking simple questions like "do you have this kettle available?" or "do you have this jacket?" It'...

Hey appreciate the reply! I haven't combined it with disclosing, and not sure if I'm comfortable doing that (yet). But for now I will record myself speaking and see how else I can improve my speaki...

Oh gosh I wish I had an answer to this. I struggle with the exact thing and it is so painful and draining, especially when it happens over and over again. Sometime I try to hit my leg or tap my foot a...

That’s so interesting! I feel like for me I am starting to have less control over my mind. So instead of me controlling it, my anticipation does. How did you train your mind to think like this?...

It's because you are trying to say predetermined words, rather than generated words. Naturally speech is easier when you flow without thinking about the words themselves...

>One question though, what does "syntactic growth" refer to? I googled it and understand it's related to the ability to construct sentences, but what exactly does it mean in this context? The four...

I’m the same way. I have more time to think about it so I get more stressed and tense than if I just make a comment in a conversation or group setting...

Oh also also! I find when I’m getting into a really bad roll with stuttering in the classroom it’s because Im not breathing properly. I get flustered and then everything sort of falls apart. Record yo...

When working with my students I slow down my speaking with pauses. I purposely make the pauses in my sentences a bit longer. This is good for my fluency but also it’s good for the students who have tr...

Also, I'll add the point that as a pws, the relationships you build with students are very important... more important than a clever class. Get to know their names, and Practice using them whenever yo...

Teacher here (University), and I still have bad days. That said, preparation goes a long way. Early on, I would design a lecture, record myself doing it by myself, and then rewatch and adjust, practic...

>and the day I'll be able to do this, I'll be really happy. Another thing that helped me was to re-define 'desire': Old definition: One day I will do this. By desiring eg fluency, less panic, les...

don’t have much advice but to tell you that you’re not alone ! i get into a nervous wreck for the first day of classes and usually will skip them if i have a hunch that the prof will do ice breakers (...
