Don’t let the Speech Flayer possess your speech like it did to Will. You can be as powerful as eleven when it comes to fighting the Speech Flayer.


Tyler, 11, Sutton, MA


My name is Corey. I’m in 5th grade. I’ve been stuttering for about 3 years. My first memory of stuttering is when I was in 3rd grade and my grandma told me to take a deep breath. When I stutter, I feel bad because my speech gets stuck in my throat and I can’t say the word. Some- thing helpful that I’ve learned in speech class is easy onset because it helps you to relax when you are talking. This helps me so I can be a bet- ter communicator when talking. But there is more to me than stuttering! In my spare time I like to sleep, eat, or play outside and I like to play on my PS4. People would be surprised to know that I am athletic. When I grow up I want to be a construction worker or a football player. One thing I want the world to know about me is when I was little, I stuttered a lot. My advice to kids who stutter is to use easy onset and wait time. Try your best and never give up!
