I like try to start my presentation with a focus on portraying confidence. Not only to the audience, but more importantly, myself. First thing you say, say it loud and proud, shoulders back, in a wide...

Nooo, that's why i used to stay pissed at myself. In school and college i started taking part in speech competitions to get comfortable with stammering. In my room, I am writing and preparing my pie...

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...

It definitely was way more accepting for me. Naturally you will still feel insecure when speaking towards people, but people were way more understanding and you could see empathy on their faces. I en...

Umm then if you can we can arrange a time and practice first in for2 voice chat and then you can get used to that, getting out of your comfort zone and getting used to it will be helpful to improve yo...

I went to Sixth Form somewhere different from my lower years of school and in general people will bully you a lot less and have more sensitivity about such things. I found that people had more patienc...

If you have free time I think joining voice chat in the discord server and talk with other people may help, I did that for few months and I feel like my fluency has improved because of that. It will a...

5th to 7th grade iirc. I was forced to actively participate in many class discussions, even though my teachers knew how bad my stammer was. I used to get stuck up on LITERALLY every 2nd word every sin...
