Chat with stutterers
The Internet has got to be the greatest thing to happen to stutterers. It gives is the opportunity to communicate with fellow stutterers outside of our geographical area. It’s not always easy to meet other stutterers in your area!
Using microphones and webcams, we can both hear and see fellow stutterers. We can mentor, share tips, practice speech therapies and best of all, stutter freely without any negative feedback!
I love the Internet!
