A book I found, Stop Stuttering Short Course: How to Break the Stuttering Code, helped me immensely. That book helped me way more than my speech therapist ever did for me.
As an overthinker and fast speaker, I possess this issue. I cut out that idea that whoever speaks fast is more confident. I would be so pissed that i cant get the words out fully and be perceived wrongfully. Started writing stuff down if the setting let me. 😢😊
This is why I prefer to type. I already can type fast but I also trained my wordpad to predict and finish words for me. This way I can write about 300 words per minute. With some error that I'll have to catch afterwards.
I too had this problem, Tips: 1) Loosen your body. 2) Control your breathing, many times we dont breathe from stomach but chest. BREATHE FROM STOMACH.. 3) Challenge yourself more often.
Thank you for sharing your tips on vocal fluency - it's great to see people supporting each other here. I did want to mention that your headline might be a bit misleading. While your tips are definitely helpful, I think it's important to recognise that stuttering management is complex and can be different for everyone. Your tips might not be a complete fix for everyone, but they could certainly be a useful addition to someone's toolkit. I'm in my sixties and have been a lifelong stutterer, so I know how challenging it can be. I've found that managing my fluency requires a range of techniques and protocols, which I have worked on continually over my lifetime, and I'm very happy with the results I have achieved. For others, it might be different. Fatigue, stress and anxiety can all play a role (they do for me), so it's important to have a variety of strategies to help manage stuttering. Anyway, I just wanted to share my perspective. Good luck to everyone on your journey - it's tough, but it can also be incredibly rewarding with the strength of character and confidence it builds 💫
im in my 20 s and i stutter plus stammer both . i dont know how my life gonna be .hoping that on some miracle day we found cure . and we are like gun with a silencer , our work gets suppressed . its a biggest punishment .
I stumbled upon your videos when searching how to become a more confident speaker, I have a tik tok where I eventually want to share life stories as we all have a story to tell. But I cringe so hard every time I record myself speaking. I decided to practice and apply your tips. My plan is to record myself speaking on certain topics for a month or two and hopefully improve so I can finally start posting my videos. As a long life introvert and social anxiety sufferer I want to build my confidence
Go for it! Pushing through that had barrier of speaking infront of people (even if it's only online) is a wonderful way to improve your sense of ease and self confidence in social situations. And just a tip - everyone cringes the first time they hear their own voice. But it's a great way to "improve" your delivery.
I had a similar problem Did a few vocal exercises and started taking pauses when i speak (which gives more clarity & time to form sentences) And within a few weeks or a month , i could speak way more clearly But practice is important Try to be consistent Also Vinh Giang's content is gold
@@ThePochomex mainly 3 exercises : 1. Making that engine-like sound using lips 😂 ( which I bet every one of us might have done , as a kid) 2. Pronouncing all the alphabets in this pattern (leaving vowels) Ba ba ba... ba ba ba... Ba ba ba... Ca ca ca...ca ca ca....ca ca ca... .....so on till Z [ there is a channel called Improve your voice - check it out) 3. Keep a pencil or a pen between your upper & lower teeth Bite n hold then try to read a paragraph
@@ThePochomexalso you gotta be consistent with these If you practice this for a month or so you'll do great But if you stop , in a month or so it may return But if you do it for like 6 months then you'll be at much better spot than before
OMG I just learned the word staccato today and realised that I have been talking like this since I was born 😭. Thank you so much. At least I knew where to start practicing my speaking skills.
This is exactly the problem I have in my life. It's hard for people to understand me because my mouth keep trying to catch up with the speak I'm thinking, which always ended up with stutter.
I have essential tremor and completely breakdown when trying to provide information to others or happen to be in the spotlight. Because of my shaking it distracts me from my message. For some reason I do extremely well in virtual presentations as well as teaching yoga when I'm not the object of attention. I have a new job that requires more confidence and authority. Will definitely look at different ways I can work with you. Trying not to hold back my potential because of this disability. So uncomfortable 😢 So many neurodiverse people out there that need individuals like yourself to make the impossible seem possible
Growing up in Florida in the 90’s, my two speech teachers were from Australia. They did an amazing job and I really don’t stutter at the age of 40, except sometimes on the phone.
I've tried to address my stutter by slowing my speech down, but I've found what's happening is that when I slow down and try to be more methodical, the energy level of my speech slows down and people start to think I'm uninterested. This has proven to be a major obstacle during my job search, as I've been told on a few occasions that I seemed disinterested, which is not the case at all.
How is it possible to slow thinking down when I have to speak infront of An audience? There is a tendency to start the speech immediately when we enter the stage , hence there are multiple thoughts running in and out about the topic all the time....Hope you read this Vinh and give some of your insights....These are great tips nonetheless 👍
0:22 is me but more so if i focus on thinking of what i m trying to say , as a opposed to just speaking without thinking. and thats a problem because if i don't think of what i want to say then i would have nothing to say
Yep I like that technique too. I used to watch a lot of old black and white movies and study and practice the way they talked. That’s when I learnt about the pause.
ig he was able to do that because he wasn’t thinking because he knew what he had to say.. Can memorising situations be a way out? but as an overthinker i would think which is the right for that situation
Ok so I do all of this. I had speech therapy when I was a child. I had issues with the hard R sound, which in America my name is a hard R sound (thats extremely embarrassing to stutter over your own name) and also th sounds. So the word the is hard for me. I stutter over it. But its not every time I use the word the. Ive gotten it to where 85% of the time I say the word the or my name, I am fine and don’t stutter. But the remainder of the time is just so frustrating.
I have 2 add on questions to this issue: Some people will perceive you slow or not smart, especially in debates or tense talks. Would you use the same skills here or do something similar to them? With practice of the mention skills you will get faster? Blessings
Woohoo what an experience lol! Sorry, totally unrelated to the subject of the video which is great, by the way! Just realised that was 999 likes on it right when I pressed mine and it turned into a "1K" in front of my eyes. Never seen that happen in my 15 years of constant TH-cam usage :)
And I was able to do that twice 🤣🤣🤣 just tried to take it on and off to see it again. Lol, it means that there's 1000 people who can do this right now, but for how long? No idea!
A book I found, Stop Stuttering Short Course: How to Break the Stuttering Code, helped me immensely. That book helped me way more than my speech therapist ever did for me.
Is "stop stuttering short " the name of book ?

That’s a great plan. Good luck 😊
Thanks I suffer from stammer and have been waiting on a video like this. More would be so helpful
Thx you for this.

@@punarnavaviswanath4304 Hello sir , how is your stutter ? do you still follow your daily routine ?
Amazing discovery, solution and formula.

What a knowledgeable guy , really explained everything so clearly and narrowed down the problem straight away ...

Good luck 😊
those are actually really good tips, thank you!
Wetata you are a great teacher
Stuttering for 35 years and I think I’ve found the cure 😊
Wat cure man pls tell ... Help me ...😢😢 31 years still stammering... Biggest problem of my life mam pls help
No it does not work all the time. Your stammer occurs due to your abnormal respiration. First try to make your breathing fluent and persistent.
Thanks so much for the help! I stutter a lot and it gets really annoying and this helped a lot!
Growing up in Florida in the 90’s, my two speech teachers were from Australia. They did an amazing job and I really don’t stutter at the age of 40, except sometimes on the phone.

U are the best bro
make more detailed video on this problem of stuttering and stammering or just speaking too fast to understand
thoughts shouldnt be faster than your words. I like that about her said
0:22 is me but more so if i focus on thinking of what i m trying to say , as a opposed to just speaking without thinking. and thats a problem because if i don't think of what i want to say then i would have nothing to say
Personally I prefer speeding my brain way up, but pausing my speech to think for a moment, before speaking in full sentences.
Yep I like that technique too. I used to watch a lot of old black and white movies and study and practice the way they talked. That’s when I learnt about the pause.

This is amazing. Many years of speech therapy and this was never mentioned!!!!!!
the ad I got for this video was this exact video. Lol
We givin' this advice to xqc🙏
I have a bad habit of speaking loud can you make a video about it?
No need to slow down thinking, try to compress meaning in little sentences ,then it will make your brain work and also you to speak efficiently
Wouldn’t it be considered singing when speaking?
You stammer when you don't have content to speak.
Woohoo what an experience lol!
Sorry, totally unrelated to the subject of the video which is great, by the way!
