Hello, my name is Kaleb. I started coming to speech in fi rst grade. I really like Minecraft, Netfl ix, and Unspeakable Gaming. I like Sonic as well. Whoever is reading this, if you are a stutterer, it is okay to stutter. Stuttering is just a thing that happens. You do nothing to make the stuttering happen. Just be okay with it. If you like dabbing, you are awesome. I have the best speech teacher I have ever had in my life because she is kind, nice, and she is beautiful. She taught me how to control my stuttering. She has made my stuttering life easier. My favorite strategy to help my stuttering is Relaxed Breathing because when I need to calm down when I am stuttering, it is very helpful.

Hi, my name is Shane, and I am 8 years old. I like to play NHL 23 on my X Box. I also like to play hockey. I’ve been stuttering for 6 years, since I was 2 years old. I do speech at school. I have an online speech teacher that I talk with as well. Sometimes I go in person, but I’m normally too busy. I gave a presentation to my class about stuttering. My class learned a lot of things. I hope they learn that I can do anything even if I stutter. I feel good about my stuttering, but sometimes I really don’t.
