Yeah I’d tell her then. You have nothing to lose by telling her and it might take some of the stress off as well....

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 ...

Yes, definitely. I am a college professor and stutterer. I address my stutter during the first day of class and encourage students to reach out to me if they have concerns about their stutter. not all...

Yes, for sure. If you tell her, she'll know that it's not your fault. It might also make things less stressful for you. Best of luck....

Yes, always be open about your stutter. It will make you more comfortable with it....

Every semester so far in college on the first day I’ve told all my professors I stutter...

I live in Canada but I honestly have blocked out my speech therapy sessions as a kid because I hated them so much. However, as an adult, I had the opportunity to take speech therapy again and the mos...

I always bring it up after the first question and after the introductory. So for example, they’d ask me a question, then I’d go something like this “that’s a great question which I’ll get to in a mome...

Good to know, I may try this at my next interview. How would you go about saying it? Can you just say, “Hi, my name is <name>, and I have a stutter” right away? Or do you bring it up yourself l...

Yes, this! Just tell them, it makes it easier for you and it lets the interviewers know they need to be respectful and patient....

I’ve considered doing that. But doesn’t that let the employer know right off the bat you may not be a good fit? Obviously they can’t say it’s because of your stutter due to legal concerns, but they ma...

I always start with “I just want to let you know that I have a stutter, so you’ll hear some disfluencies here and there”. Always works like a charm. I feel like I get a free pass on my stuttering and ...

I relate to you. What I would do is anytime when giving a presentation or anything like that, say in a professional manner that you "speak with a stutter" so "please bear with you". I'm 28 so a bit ...

since you’ve posted that i’ve actually gotten two more awards 😅😅 and of course ! i don’t mind telling people about my life and my experiences, since it’s helping others as well as myself !...

I had a great one today where the person in the other end thought my connection had fallen out! :) I quickly mentioned that it was just my speech handicap, but then he actually apologized, and then I ...

Thanks so much, that means a lot! I barely started disclosing my stutter on the phone, and it really does make a big difference. You're right, and most of the time they don't even care, so I just need...

Good job my man! (or woman) As a non-stutterer I can say that many people fear phone calls, and feel the same way. My advice is that if you are talking to someone you havent met yet, tell them in adva...

I can relate so hard to u, i think its the best to be as open and positive about our stutter. Maybe when u start your presentation tell the people you have a stutter. They will now know whats up and y...

I get what you are saying and I totally understand that comparison about someone who stutters not. But if you stutter you should tell the person interviewing you, because if you don’t want they may as...

Well I got asked to describe myself, that was fine. I also was asked to describe my favourite piece of clothing (as my random set question), but that took like... 20 seconds and I didn’t know what els...
