Not being able to speak clearly can make you feel bad about yourself. But remember, you're not alone - more than 80 million people around the world stutter. Here are some tips to help you improve your speech.
Practice speaking slowly.
Spend 5 to 10 minutes each day practicing slow speech, either by yourself or with someone who can help. Choose a topic you know well, and then talk about it without using notes. This practice helps you get used to thinking before you speak, just like in real conversations.

Telling them about your stutter frees you from worrying about what they might think if you happen to stutter during the conversation.
