I have several Uncles and cousins who stuttered and all of them found help through The Stuttering Foundation. Go to their web site at www.stutteringhelp.org and look under "brochures for all ages" for the one on tips for talking on the telephone as well as checking other parts of their site for tips to help. My family says that the book that helped them the most was the "Self Therapy for the Stutterer" that the Foundation published.

My 14-year-old son stutters severely. What we've learned (and experienced) is that people who stutter can often sing and recite rhythmic poetry without stuttering. They can usually read aoud and recite lines from a script fluently. Spontaneous speech, which involves original thought, is often when they have a problem, but only when there is an audience (even one person) in the room.
My son used to talk as he played with toys, and with no one else around he was perfectly fluent. He can speak fluently to our dog when no one else is around. The more comfortable he is with his audience, and the less stressful the situation, the more fluent he is. While even the experts cannot tell you what causes stuttering, it's clear that there is an emotional component to it. Some people who stutter have benefited from speech therapy and/or medication. Unfortunately, my son up to this point is not one of them.
You can find answers and support through groups like the National Stuttering Association. They have clubs and a yearly convention where stutterers of all ages can be with people who understand their situation. Best of luck to you!

My husband was a stutterer as is his brother.
He got help in high school through a speech therapist and now rarely does he stutter. His brother only stutters now on the phone or when nervous.
Have you noticed that when you're in a large crowd and lots of talking at the same time, you don't stutter or stammer? If so, a speech therapist could help you.
Good luck...personally, when hubbie stutters, I find it cute(and I never try to fill in the words, I just let him take his time)...unless he's lying!

An applicant for an Airman scientific and student Pilot certificates would desire to be waiting to envision, communicate, write, and comprehend the English language and communicate it without accessory or impediment that would desire to intervene with 2 way radio verbal substitute. that's surprisingly plenty verbatim out of the scientific examiner's e book. i think the real question is how undesirable the guy stutters or stammers and the examiner's own interpretation. on the least decide for a known classification scientific and notice in case you bypass earlier spending a number of thousand money.

I'm a stutterer as well. And typically stutterers don't stutter when they read or talk to themselves.
If you can't get help from a speech therapist, check out this book. I found it very helpful.
