Aspiring law student here in the Philippines. Currently in my application period. I applied to 4 law school. Even with those numbers, I had one school that is like my back-up school (described it as a...

Is law school even possible for someone with a moderate/severe stutter?

Is law school even possible for someone with a moderate/severe stutter? Is it even possible for someone with a moderate/severe stutter to study law? Or will this really be hard? I have heard you have ...

Yes absolutely! I would recommend that massively. You can check out my TikTok account where I give a lot of public speaking and speaking tips: https://www.tiktok.com/@noholdsbarredspeaking?_t=8mOQvRo...

i’m happy your presentation went well!! i’m always happy to hear when presentations go smoothly because they’re usually a big ‘obstacle’ 😭 and the stuttering when talking to friends again is so real ...

Yes, I compare it to a steam engine: it takes a long time to start, but once it starts, it starts for good. When I have a long presentation to give, I'll stutter a lot throughout the 1st quarter and a...

Happened with me once too. I had to give presentation in my university, in front of all my classmates and few teachers. I thought I would messed up this time and all people there will get to know that...

Love him or hate him, I actually DO deny that Trump is a fantastic public speaker. He's not eloquent or well-spoken at all....

I’m so glad that was useful for you! I did a bit of toastmasters myself actually, but I didn’t like the way they taught public speaking. Potentially it was just that club but I don’t quite synchronise...

“Modeling” Anyone ever see Michael Williams’ Pro 90D program? Essentially, his theory is you “model” aka transform into a speaker you look up to. For me, it’s him, Michael Williams himself, and, Donal...

I was so self conscious of my stutter throughout all of high school. In college, I started telling my professors the beginning of each semester and they were super understanding. I only got therapy at...

Tell your professor you’d rather present to her/him in person. That it’s not something you call a disability and it’s nothing you can help. I stutter and i have two bachelors degrees so I’ve had to gi...

Maybe try this. Start w - “I just want everyone to know, giving this presentation is flexing my courage muscle.”...

Surprisingly no. I also didn’t get bullied for being gay which was insane. Of course, there was the stray f-slur thrown my way but that’s just natural. But in terms of stuttering, people actually unde...

I do presentations on a regular basis. When I feel like I'm too anxious just to power through, I put one bullet point on stuttering on one of the first slides that covers my background. It usually say...

1000% let your instructor know beforehand about your stutter!!! That way, they don’t subtract points for something you cannot help. I’m a senior in UG currently and I’ve done many presentations. 90% o...

I've been affected a lot. If it weren't for this, I'd probably be a sports journalist/commentator. Even as a software engineer, I tend to avoid promotions that involve a lot of interactions, so becomi...

I’m a water engineer and present to clients nearly every day! It’s not easy but it does get better. Just keep going and don’t shy away from doing it. It’s the best way to get desensitized imo....

If you’re looking for corporate type office jobs, the most stressful part would be your interview. After you start working I would assume you become accustomed to your coworkers- and you’ll pretty muc...

Nike has a great marketing slogan "Just Do It" Join Toastmasters (or similar speaking organization) in your area and sign up. Any good coach will tell you thatbif you want to get good at anything, ...

I've been really getting into public speaking recently and the more you practise the easier it gets. Also forcing yourself to make eye contact genuinely helps me so much....
