The Stutterer's Survival Guide - Vol 1

The Stutterer’s Survival Guide 1 provides crucial support for the stutterer who has tried one of the many treatments available and is now facing the challenge of maintaining their fluency.
This guide provides practical advice and suggests specific strategies to help the stutterer through those ‘hot spots’ at school, at work, and at play, including:
• interviews
• presentations
• telephone conversations
• parties
To reinforce the importance of support a special chapter is devoted to the stutterer’s family and friends. Establishing a continuing supportive relationship with other stutterers is also encouraged.
Nicholas Tunbridge has written this guide from the point of view of a stutterer who has received treatment and is now successfully maintaining his fluency. This guide describes the techniques
Nicholas uses every day to get him through his life both socially and professionally.
Nicholas is now employed as a human resources consultant, a job that requires him to use his speech effectively and confidently.
He is married and lives in Melbourne with his wife, daughter and son.
