Stuttering Can Come and Go


My name is Dillon. I am 13 years old and I started to stutter when I was in Kindergarten. That year I began going to speech therapy. I stuttered until I got into the third grade. Later, while I was in third grade, my stuttering stopped. My stuttering started back up when I got into sixth grade. Then, in seventh grade, I began to go to speech therapy again. I was taught many strategies such as tightening and relaxing my toes, taking deep breaths, stretching out the word, and simply just taking a break and trying again. The strategies that works for me is taking a deep breath.

I Recommend A Presentation Hi, my name is Remy. I am 9 years old and I am in 4th


grade. I


live in Morganville, New Jersey. I never noticed that I stuttered until first grade. I don’t stutter much. I have been in speech for three years. My speech tools are stretching, bouncing and pausing. Speech therapy was a great help. I really liked it.


Stuttering is Not Bad


My name is Xadrien. I am 11-3/4 years old. I think that stuttering is kind of fun. It sounds like a crazy voice. Xadrien, 6th

Hi, my name is Sam. I have a story to tell you. When I was a little kid in preschool, nobody could understand me for 2 years. The 3rd


year in preschool when I met my classmates I didn’t talk that much because I didn’t know what to say.


My parents wanted me to go to speech. Then it helped me, but there was a mean kid and he called me “half a brain.” It made me mad because it’s not true. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “People should be treated the way they want to be treated.” I’m completely happy with stuttering because I like how I was made. The End.

My speech teacher, Mrs. G., gave me the opportunity to make a presentation on stuttering for my class, teachers, parents, brother and staff. It went very well. The class thanked me for educating them on stuttering and asked how they can be of help to me. I really recommend creating a presentation.
