I just started working as a server, First 2 days have been pretty bad but it’s already gotten immensely better. I totally understand when you say “learned” I don’t really have set phrases yet so I ha...

For me, the solution was (before I overcame it) is to make it nautral. Like shut your mouth, keep looking to the one your are speaking in his eyes and then re-say the word while changing the intonatio...

My stutter is blocks as well. It's much easier said than done I know, but when you get into a block, try and just stop. If you try and push the sound too much you might develop twitches which will be ...

I think you can change the way you stutter. Like, if you get stuck on certain words when you are trying to be 'mean' and 'authoritative', you can pause, take breath, prolongate, etc. to circumvent rev...

Make eye contact and say “I stutter” or anything that you are more likely to say. Continue eye contact (because your words *are* important and the listener does want to hear). Start speaking slowly,...

It's gonna help, that's my experience at least. There is no reason it should get worse, never heard anyone who stutters more 🙂 It takes time and perseverance, but at least for me it makes a big diff...

I wish, I had the courage like you when I was younger. I let my speech impediment hold me back during life. I was in the navy for four years. Got out because I couldn't see my self trying to lead with...

In my experience, most people are considerate. They won't laugh or make fun of you. They might get a little awkward, but won't hurt you by making fun of you. If they do make fun of you, they are just ...

Facing forwards and looking down is supposed to help, you can’t really do this one in person. Something with tongue position. It helps me when I’m speaking kind of okay but not when I’m speaking very ...
