Thanks for sharing. So do you think you started stuttering because you were exposed to those speech patterns? I think it's genetic. I often wonder how much gaming is affecting stutterers. I'm not a g...

[UPDATE] Dear readers, It's been a month since my last post, so I would like to share my thoughts: 1. Regarding the duties of a substitute, it is best to stay firm. Depending on the class, some ...

It's beautiful, but it has a pretty negative vibe to it which might be a problem for trying to get into an institution. Is this for grad school or undergrad?...

You don't know that Churchill, Lenin, Biden and any of those guys had a better or worse stutter than you. The only time you see these people speak is during public events or speeches, you don't know w...

Practice, practice, practice. It can make a huge difference. You don't have to be perfectly fluent to confidently socialize with peers or talk to professors. Personally I like Bill Parry's book (Under...

I empathize with your situation, I have had lots of presentations in college and at work and I've had many job interviews. The worst thing you can do is be unprepared, you should have a rap memorized ...

I just responded to your question before, but I wanted to post it here for everyone else if they might need it: You have to let the administrator know well before the test. Like, months, if you can....

Thank you. Regarding the point on how I'm not sure what I'm doing, that's due to more factors than just my stuttering. I just want to take a different direction I think and my major (Political Scien...

I've been a uni for some time now, and it was definitely my first uni presentation. In high school I was fine with presenting, I stuttered very little during the presentations I wasn't really known f...

I gave my ielts speaking and got a 7 in it. I find that I don't normally stutter in a quiet one on one environment so it went well for me. Stuttered maybe once or twice. I think you should just let t...

[question] IELTS Speaking as a stutter Hey guys, really need your help in this case ASAP. I want to pursue higher education and for that I need to give IELTS. But as a stutter, speaking will really ...

Is it bad to substitute words? Just visit a church you'll be used to saying thank you in no time. ...

I just visited the campus about an hour ago, so I could meet the secretary and have a sense of the learning atmosphere. I never stepped foot on that particular campus, and I also wanted to establish a...

I would like to be more engaged with the students instead of being the passive substitute teacher. I never enjoyed the ones who just assigned the students assignments, and sat there and did nothing fo...

I couldn't view the video because it has been flagged for copyright. (I assumed the kid was stuttering a lot, yes?) In my experience, these kids won't speak in class unless told to do so. Regarding...

he(?) is a substitute. he can scrape by with "your teacher wont be here today but i was told to tell you to read chapter 7 and answer the questions on the last page." (a good sub does a lot more tha...
