I’m considering becoming a teacher but I’m in the same situation. I love languages and would love to teach Irish, but I’m worried about not being able to speak to my students cause I stutter a lot spe...
Hey, I think we're in the same situation. I'm currently on my way to get a languages degree and I'm terrified with the idea of teaching. I think that if you consider your excitement for teaching bigge...
I have always told interviewers about it throughout my life. I find getting it out in the open early means I'm less distracted with thinking about which words to avoid and can focus on the interview. ...
I would suggest finding some distractions first before going to the interview. You can either go to a Grocery Store or ATM. And do the breathing exercises. You can try the following exercise half an h...
Make a joke out of it casually after they ask you to talk about yourself. Something like "By the way, just so you know, if I stutter, it's because I have a stutter. Not because I'm nervous. Well, not ...
They control their stutter (same way to stutter everytime) and choose the "common" letters to do it (b, p and t)....
I would consider the display of tension. While many stutterers have developed physical mechanisms to help them move through a block or a repetition, many stutterers experience a physical tightening an...
Dude, we should talk. Have the same experience as you, right down to the stutter disappearing after childhood and coming back at 24 (minus the intensive program though; good for you on doing that!). H...

Mine did, but I think a big part of that is that all of my work is now via Zoom or phone. My fluency always seems to go downhill in those situations....
Thank you for those kind words. I want for you to think about the BIG picture. I've had to lie to recruiters and tell them that I have already taken another position which I hadn't because I could...
Thank you for the kind words of encouragement. I will always try to move forward and do my best not to let the constant rejections get to me but it's unfortunately taking a toll on me psychologically,...
I also get where you're coming from. The terror I used to feel at times was.... indescribable. It's too bad therapy didn't help you. What I really took away from it were little tricks for sounds I wo...
Hey man, 30 year old stutterer here. Look, if you're part of this club, it is what it is. Sometimes you're going to stutter, sometimes you won't. Here's the thing - the insecurity and constant worry...

17, LOL. 31 here. Just so you know, this is for life. Learn to deal with it. Get some SSRI and start weight training. If it cripples your life in any hard way. Get some Benzo script. Im on Paxil and D...
