I always spoke privately to all of my professors beforehand, to give them a sense of the struggle it would be for me to speak in front of the class. I also enrolled with my university's Accessibility ...

Really? Small world. Haha funny story, that was actually the first club I signed up for while in university. But during the first meeting, they wanted us to go up in front of everyone and tell an im...

I'm a graduate student of Speech-Language Pathology, and this semester I work with several college age students who stutter. I suggest reaching out and connecting with other students at your universit...

Thanks - it will get better for you too. It looks like you're in the KW area also, so what improved things for me may help you too. ToastMasters has some really good (supportive, inclusive) area clu...

After you guys finish the presentation. Read over it a few times. Then read it out loud a couple of more times. Then ask if your group mates if they wouldn’t mind sitting down while you do a mock pres...

Just do it. I had one back in November and out of the 7 groupmates, only 3 of us spoke. I volunteered to speak because it's these situations that help you to adjust to high pressure situations (if y...

Practice your presentation so that you are comfortable enough with the content so that you can focus on the speech. You sound like your stutter is mild, so you shouldn't have a hard time being confide...

Talk to the group member you feel the most comfortable with and tell them about it and may adjust some things with the presentation....

I unfortunately was failed in my foreign language class due to not being able to present. My written was perfect, but oral presentation was 60% of the grade. I tried to fight it, but I lost...

In Irish it's 'bac cainte' [bock k-eye-n-tah] (speech impediment). So imagine having to say that to an Irish oral examiner when you're already stressed about having to do an oral in the first place......
