Sounds like good fun as well! I might try this out. I also heard that reading out loud was a good way to practice, similar to this I guess. ...
Congrats on making progress and hitting milestones! Don't let a couple of hiccups discourage you, we all have bad days. When my fluency is bad I make myself stop and review or practice my techniques...
Making progress, but made a few stumbles
Making progress, but made a few stumbles Hey, y’all! This is my first time posting in here. I started to have a stuttering problem about three years ago but, have made a lot of milestones since Augus...
Might be effective in practicing. As in, reading from a book at home, you'll need to be hyper-focused on what you're saying and where you are in your sentence. Not sure it'd be good in conversation. ...
Cảm ơn bạn! I appreciate your perspective, I'm just glad to have read of someone that can relate to this specific struggle! I've actually been using some vietnamese songs to practice helping my spee...
I tap my forefinger to my thumb for each syllable. It helps to slow me down. A lot of my problem was that I spoke too softly, so I am trying to speak louder and slower. In a business setting, I t...
Yes, they are maintnained. I imagine you could go without the metronome in time. Think of it as batting practice and regular speech as the "whole game". Yes, I'd try it with both text and speech. ...
It's a great tool to PRACTICE with. It helps you slow down and speak in a monotone, consistent pace. I highly recommend it. If you try to use it in casual conversation it will lose it's effect and ju...
It’s so weird because I sometimes talk to my cat to and I don’t stutter and mostly in both I haven’t really developed a trick they tell me to slow easy speech but it’s kinda hard ...
Hey fellow Vietnamese-American here. My Vietnamese stuttering way worse than my English for a lot of the reasons you mention. Syllable timed speech will help if your Vietnamese is fluent enough. I f...
Wow that is really fascinating. Does this really work in increasing fluency? My only concern is that the metronome is a distraction. Like the chorus effect (where stutterers can speak as long as th...
You may get an SLP who does nothing for you, unfortunately. All too common. One who has worked with multiple languages would obviously be ideal. STS is tricky to look up, but it's fairly simple in ...
I tap my forefinger to my thumb for each syllable and that helps me be more fluent. Maybe write down what you are going to say before you make the phone call so you can read it instead of trying to ...
I talk to about 20-30 people on the phone everyday for work in insurance sales. I have a specific greeting that I say every time. Standing up also helps me. Knowing what I'm talking about also helps. ...
There's no one shot method where you'll instantly become fluent. You just need to practice it. The more you do it, the better you'll get. And don't take personally (or at least don't try to) because m...
The first technique reminds me of an easy onset speech technique that speech therapists advise stutterers to use (mine did) The first one is good, the second one is bad. I used to do something simila...
I always tell my friends and relatives that if their child or even adult friend stutters even a little bit, take them to a speech therapist. As their stutter is not in danger zone, they can be treated...
Therapy can be fickle in that it changes with the situation. Perhaps give it a shot again. If you feel more capable in managing your stutter, your likely to be less anxious....
I'm also a natural extrovert who has a severe stutter which makes it very hard. I couldn't really do anything until I got a handle on my speech. I'd recommend you find a good speech therapist who know...
Anything which makes you focus on your speech and breath will help. I personally talk more deliberately by subtly drawing out sounds I feel like I'm having trouble with. This sounds like it would make...
