"We must hear fluency..." = you should not focus on your stuttering ?? is my reading comprehension not so good or what? lol...

I had my first "did you swallow your tongue?" moment today but it wasn't so bad. Please excuse me for the bad formatting, I am writing this from mobile. I am 15 and I work at a cookie shop. I met to...

My experience with stuttering
My experience with stuttering I'm a 15 y/o boy from Holland, so sorry if my grammar is bad. I stutter very heavily, i can't say 2 words without stuttering. It really makes me sad because if i want t...
Congrats, you won out on that one! Eye contact for me often requires at least sole level of concentration, which means less mental energy for speaking. But eye contact is very important and like the p...
