If you feel as though your stutter is unavoidable, I have found it helpful to just start my presentation by just saying something along the lines of “hello everyone! Before I start, I just wanted to l...

Keep going. I know it sucks. You are going to have an interviewer that gets it one of these days. Either they stutter or knows and loves someone who does. Focus on communication and always remember to...

I like the advice about using a character voice. When I'm on the phone with someone who doesn't know me, I've noticed taking on a different speech pattern and pitch can help immensely. Remember, a lot...
