Don’t Get Nervous About Stuttering
Hello, my name is Angel. I started speech therapy in second grade. I use my strategies at school and at home. I stutter when I am nervous and when I talk too fast but I stutter most when I am mad. My advice to others is to not get nervous about stuttering.

I
stutter sometimes. I talk on exhalation and use cancellations to help me a lot with my stutter. Just because I stutter doesn’t mean I am not smart. I am very smart. I am good at math and other subjects. who stutter in the magazine.

Stuttering is like the game “Don’t Break the Ice.” During a conversation it’s like you’re on ice and if you fall you’re going to stutter. It’s like when you walk on ice, you don’t know if you are going to fall, like
you don’t know when you are going to stutter. When you start to fail, you begin to stutter but when you do easy onsets, slow speech, and sliding, it’s like you get back on top of the ice to finish your conversation. So don’t be afraid to stutter!!

My name is Darius and I have been stuttering since I was in first grade. I am 10 years old. Right now I am in fourth grade. I see a speech therapist. The best strategies that help me are pausing, stretching and easy onsets. Stuttering is where you get stuck on what you’re trying to say. I do not care about my stuttering. Some people do make fun of me but they stopped teasing me. I always stutter at home and at school. Mostly at home. My brother has problems with his speech but not the same as I do. It is alright to stutter!
