That's too bad. I mean, you shouldn't feel "disgusted" just because there are some sounds coming out differently from what you thought it should sound like. Is this the first time you've been "put on...

Perhaps the classes will help you in other ways, which is fine of course. :) "Nerves" is a factor. How much of a factor it would be for you, and what might be done about it, we wouldn't know. If you ...

Do you talk to yourself? I don't know, I have this habit since I was a child, and it's good for me. It is almost an study of speak, because when I am alone, I don't need to be worried about what the o...

Hello 😀 Oh yes, the "best" thing about our speech is that we can easily say something like "what's it called", but can't say some other damn word or letter. I'm here just for a couple of days now, ...

I’m 30 and I’ve had a stutter my whole life (was pretty severe into my teens) but now I’d classify it as mild to moderate depending on how stressed/anxious I am. I work in Operations for Amazon and as...
