Yes, as others have commented, please do not ask him to read aloud. It can be very difficult and overwhelming to read in front of people. Try to connect with him before the tutoring sessions start. ...

Don't ruin math by asking him to read out loud. Let him finish his sentences and never make him feel rushed. Say something nice about them that is not related to speaking. ​ As a kid I f...

So.... I’m not a math person. What grade? What topic? There are lots of fun math games. You can break the ice with some cheesy math jokes. Oh, i forgot to say earlier- you can just pretend the stut...

Create space. You do that by doing something together that doesn’t require talking. It’s about relationship building and letting him know you’re cool with him. What subject are you tutoring him in...

Hey, nice to see you‘re willing to help. How about you try to find something he likes and talk to him about it? I think this might help him feel more comfortable around you and then you can proceed to...

Well all that you can do is just take it easy because to deal with stuttering in school is very hard, you can't do nothing about this, just if you have magic to cure his stutter but nobody can't, all ...

my parents were like you when i was younger (i'm 33 now), and i was much like your son. the greatest gift you can give your son is 1. time, and 2. a safe space. when i would lock up in the car for wha...

thats cool tho. At least u ain't making him feel like there's something wrong with him, which is more than awesome tbh. He's lucky to have u :D...

Trouble is, hes not really affected by it enough to want to go to anything like this. When i bring anything up i generally get, Yeah whatever Dad, Im watching youtube, can you shut the door on the way...

Your son sounds a *lot* like I was. > He's a happy soul and says no-one mentions it at school Exactly the same for me. At least, nobody spoke about it around me. I'm sure there'd have been times ...

Sorry but its not laughing at him, its with him. One thing both my kids have is a great sense of humour....

I totally agree!! A camp for stutterers is a great way to expose him to other PWS and he can learn techniques to cope with life's stressful events. There are many organizations (I don't know where yo...

No don’t laugh at him. Most stutterers find it offensive to be laughed at. Stop guessing his words and give him time to speak. Be patient with him and send him to a therapist. The earlier the better....

Hello op! So I am 15 and I stutter since I was like 2-3 idk exactly so my advice is be very calm with him talk to him slowly and gently (atleast this works for me) but if nothing works you have to acc...

Nah, hes so placid i rarely lose it with him. Mocking his stutter never comes into my head although I am guilty of ridiculously guessing his next word which makes us both laugh and breaks the tension....

I honestly don't know how to help. Although I can tell you one simple thing: Don't be a dick to him. When in moments of anger, don't make fun of his stutter. Just don't mock him for having a stutter o...

I'm very sorry you have to deal with that from your mom. Please give her this link (or print it out for her): https://stamma.org/get-support/parents (click on "Supporting your child")....

I hate it when i block and then people try to guess the word that i wanted to say! And worst thing is they usually get it wrong and I'd have to repeat myself. Like damn just wait a lil bit i got i don...

I would not advise going to a SLP, as this can reinforce stuttering which it did for me You are doing a great job by not pointing it out Act like it is no problem and that stuttering is not a bad th...

Going to echo what a few others said - something like 75% of kids who stutter grow out of it, but bc she’s a bit older and bc you have concerns totally a good idea to follow up right away with the ref...
