Waiting for Victory!
Hi my name is Jordan. I’m 10 years old and I’m in the 5th grade at Dundee Elementary in Omaha, Nebraska. I stutter a lot and sometimes I’m nervous, but sometimes I’m not. Plus, strategies help me when I’m stuck on words. My favorite one is turtle talk. Turtle talk is when you talk slow or do it in a robot voice, or both in a calm and relaxed voice.
I can’t control stuttering - it just comes. It happens to 3,000,000 people in the world. I like WWE, so I pretend to fight stuttering. I’M WAITING FOR VICTORY!

Editor’s Note: About 1% of the population stutters. That means about 3 million people in the U.S. and some 70 million people worldwide!

Stuttering Is Nothing!! My stuttering does
not bother me. Like a Greek god, I am bigger than my stuttering.

My name is Reagan and I am 9 years old and in 3rd grade. I have gone to speech for 4 years and it has helped me get better with my speech. I work on easy speaking first – “sh” “ch” and “j” sounds. I like to play soccer and LAX. I am a really fast runner. Stuttering is not a big part of my life. Stuttering is nothing!!!!
