BeneTalk's Founder and CEO, Jordi Fernandez, explains how embrace stuttering is the road towards find joy in speaking and be free of fear of speaking.

"I would have liked my teachers to have recognised my struggle and had a one-on-one conversation with me about how I felt and what could be done to make the situations easier."

"Our responses to stuttering can shape how a child views their speech, but of course, we aren’t the only people involved in their lives. Speak with relatives, family friends and nursery or school staff about stuttering."

"I know that growing up with a stutter, and being an adult with a stutter, can be challenging. It can be frustrating and other people aren’t always understanding. However, I feel I have achieved in my life, not despite my stammer, but because of it."
