How to 
REDUCE STUTTERING 
Repeating words or syllables unintentionally is called stuttering. 
Stuttering also refers to drawn out syllables and sounds, 
as well as words and phrases.
1 Slow down. 
The faster you speak the more likely you are 
to stumble over your words. Think about 
your speech and actively work to slow it to a 
controlled level, reducing incidents of 
stuttering. 
2 Take a deep breathe. 
Breathing normally and avoiding running out 
of breathe when speaking also reduces 
stuttering. Controlling your breathing will 
help you to slow down.
3 Speak gently. 
Think of how your tongue and your mouth are working together to form your 
words. Focus on the movement and think of a gentle play between them as 
opposed to forceful speech that leads to stuttering. 
4 Say your words with a singsong feel. 
This helps you focus on the words you want to say and avoid stumbling 
through them.
5 Practice speaking by reading out 
loud from your favorite book or a 
daily newspaper. 
Usually stutterers find they do not 
stumble as much when reading the 
written word. Reading out loud will 
help you to build the confidence to 
speak out. 
6 Record yourself speaking and listen to it. 
Listening to yourself will help you determine what sounds you struggle with 
and determine a pattern for your stuttering, allowing you to self-correct in the 
future.
