My name is Alexa, and I am from Alabama, and I am in the 5th
grade! I
have a stutter. My stutter is just getting stuck on words, or sometimes I might repeat some words or letters. I think that stuttering is really not a huge problem, or it’s not even a problem at all! I really like acting, music, and drawing, and my favorite thing about liking all those things is that my stuttering doesn’t stop me! My favorite stuttering strategies are using a slow rate and taking in a full breath before I start a sentence. For me, those strategies really help me in conversations, presenting, and acting! I really like soccer and I also play it! My favorite soccer player is Ricardo, or you may know him as KaKá! My advice to young fellow kids who stutter just like me is to not worry at all when you are going to stutter or even if you do, because every single human being has stuttered once before in their life, so don’t think you’re different than others!

Hi, my name is Will. I live in Gulf Shores, AL, and I’m 10
years old. I like to play basketball, football, and baseball. My favorite teams for all those sports are the Golden
State Warriors, the New Orleans Saints, and the Atlanta Braves. I like to go hunting and fishing and play video
games. My favorite video games are Fortnite, Madden 25, NBA 2K25, and GTA-5. I like to eat seafood at Mikee’s and Shrimpy’s because those are my family’s restaurants. My favorite speech fluency strategies are slow
rate and cancellation. My advice to kids is when people ask you why you stutter, it’s okay to tell them that you stutter and it’s not a big deal.
