I went to 6th form not college but I assume its the same, and I found it so much better. Having smaller class sizes, knowing the teacher more closely, less time in actual lessons so less chance of bei...
Somebody was asking almost the same question in this sub before, so I've copied my answer about my experience here. Rehearse your words and behaviour in advance, this is the first and foremost. Also ...
I used to get really nervous during interviews too, but I eventually found a few things that helped. First, I would try to do as much research as possible on the company and the position I was intervi...
Keep going. I know it sucks. You are going to have an interviewer that gets it one of these days. Either they stutter or knows and loves someone who does. Focus on communication and always remember to...
I know that, but I can't bring myself to do it. That other guy telling me about medication seems more reasonable than spending an hour each night reading aloud, I don't have an hour each night I can s...
I'm much worse at reading out loud than speaking more spontaneously. For something like a presentation I'd prepare what I want to convey, not the exact wording, have some notes to make sure I stay on ...
This is what you need to do. Most of the tension is because we overthink the event too much before the event itself. So you should prepare the viva and when u feel you have enough preparation for it t...
My mom told me she used to read aloud daily, and practiced talking in the mirror almost daily. My dad used a form of exposure therapy, so basically talking to people as much as he could and applying t...
I think the thing to do is to give your speech. Make sure you practice it plenty so you know where your stops are going to be. That being said I don’t know your level of stutter...
Go through with it and do your speaking part. I’ve been there. I hated group projects and presentations when I was in college, but I firmly believe don’t them benefited me in the long run. You can’t h...
Rehearse your words and behaviour in advance, this is the first and foremost. Also you may take an anxiety drug (e.g. valerian root tincture). Helped me a lot. My very first interview was a year aft...
Im not sure if this applies to you, but at least for me one way I manage my stutter is by basically having pre-made phrases that I pull up when needed, usually phrases that avoid some of the sounds th...
This might not be helpful as everyone’s different and I don’t know the severity of your stutter/your current dosage, but I also noticed my stutter got a lot worse when I started taking adderall at the...
I get that it would be WAY easier with a keyboard, and WAY faster. In my opinion though, using a keyboard puts a barrier in that 'face to face' scenario. This is how I usually go about it. First t...
I have given lots of presentations and training classes. A few things help me: knowing the material (I usually practice 10 to 20 times), anticipating questions....
Seeing as you have only a day left you can start by telling people such as the lecturer you stutter. Hiding your stutter makes it worse. University students are generally much more mature than student...
Good practice I liked it. Just an idea, maybe do prepare yourself but don´t memorize the words. Practice the idea and the topics and when it comes the time of publick speaking let your voice flow wi...
Are there certain sounds or letters you have more or less difficulty saying? It helped me in school to kind of script my presentations so they were words I could say mostly fluently. Of course, in the...
Remember not to follow an exact script. If u stutter ur gonna anticipate words and sounds and ur gonna get stuck on it. You should make bullet points to follow along and wing it as you go. Stick to th...
With all due respect to what could’ve been a better way to deal with the situation: what happened, happened. You can’t change that. Working towards being more prepared for next year’s application is...
