Let them know up front that you stutter; possibly by email in advance. Remind them at the beginning of the interview. A good friend of mine is a nurse who stutters, does a great job. No reason you sho...

Sentences that start with a word with a vowel are what I struggle with the most. My name starts with a vowel, so introducing myself is the hardest thing for me to get past. If I know I am meeting visi...

I always mention my stutter and how it’s made me a better person and how odds are there aren’t many people (if any at all) at the company who stutter so I could be introducing a whole new perspective ...

The stuttering mind stuff that occurs is mind boggling maybe just as much as the stuttering itself. It comes as a package for most PWS. I don’t stutter but as an SLP have worked with scores who do. Wh...

From my experience the more you try to not stutter, the more you do. Just try not to think about it and let it go. If the catastrophe happens, say sorry to the class and tell them that you stutter, if...

It depends on the setting and severity of the stutter, but usually sustained eyecontact does not help me. It's good to stay attentive, but feel free to look away. Kind of like when a person is telling...
