Glad to hear it! Just remember to pause to breathe as you are presenting. Pausing is totally normal for all speakers. Doing this helped me a lot during a recent phone interview....
Is there a speech therapist you can see? Check local colleges or universities, they may have a speech program that offers therapy too. Try to slow down, don't think too much about what your about t...
Speech therapist Tim Mackesey gave me an incredible lightbulb moment when he said to basically talk in short segments, while breathing normally, sometimes taking a breath before saying the next part. ...
Stutter freely! When you try not to stutter, you only stutter more. Before your speech, relieve the pressure on yourself to perform by being honest with your audience. Tell them you stutter, in your o...
Yea i agree 👍. I started reading aloud recently for 5 to 10 minutes aday, and then i read aloud again with dr mort cooper speech( its like extra phonation into your speech) and finally i recite words...
Hmm i would say, read a lot out loud. You need to hear your un-joking voice as much as possible. You need to reinforce your normal calm voice. When i was around 12 years old I read books with my mom a...
I don’t have much experience with public speaking, but I used to have this problem on occasion when talking on the phone. I I think it ultimately boils down to being relaxed vs nervous. You don’t nor...
I’m trying it right now and it works! I can’t tell the difference audibly unless I really draw it out which I’ve always been a fast talker so that’s not an issue lol. Thank you!...
Try pushing it out hard with a lot of tension then feel what it feels like to push it out with no tension. That’s what my speech pathologist told me to try. When you push or try real hard hard you a...
Just tried it out. Unfortunately I still have trouble even the the “g”. It’s like it’s the same letter to me for some reason but I have no issues saying “g”words which is weird. So it must be somethin...
I do find it a bit easier to get things out on an exhale. I’ll practice hitting it super soft for sure. Thank you!...
Try to hit the K sound as softly as possible. You're aiming for almost no K sound at all. Start exhaling before you say "control." Almost as if you are open mouth hissing the K out. Use a relaxed ja...
I have been working with people who stutter for over 20 years. The sounds that they get stuck on are all different. There is nothing special about a sound. In order to resolve a stuttering problem, a ...
I’ve been trying it in front of a mirror this morning and you really can’t hear or tell me not saying the “c”. I think it’s gonna work!...
I’ve thought about that but just scared I won’t make it sound believable lol. I will give that a shot and hopefully eventually would be able to get over this hump. I’ll definitely look up Lee Lovett ...
You could just omit the letter c and say 'ontrol', it's the first crutch in Lee Lovett's self cure methods. If you can say 'ontrol' you can often just jam control right after it without pausing or hes...
It's maybe a strange angle to speech therapy, but i have reduced my stuttering quite alot from trying to do all i can to reduce my sons stuttering with "indirect therapy". Basically changing how i (an...
Just from a quick glance at the page, it seems similar to a therapy technique referred to as “easy onset.” Normal speech uses very low air pressure; stuttering is often accompanied by very high pressu...
Does the "Passive Air Flow Technique" work?
Does the "Passive Air Flow Technique" work? I've been reading about this infamous technique - [http://www.stutter-no-more.com/chptr\_09.html](http://www.stutter-no-more.com/chptr_09.html) \- and I'm q...
Thanks for your kind words. Like I said, it was a struggle to get into such a role. I had a very strong network security engineering background. I read a lot. I put myself through certifications an...
