Hi... l asked ai for assistance as your post really moved me. There are thousands of ppl who fail because of there speech but there is so Answer. There is always another way ✅ THE SOLUTION FOR HIM (AND THOUSANDS LIKE HIM) IELTS has an alternative. Most people don’t know this, but for candidates with speech disorders (stuttering, stammering, apraxia, etc.), IELTS allows special accommodations, including: 1. Extra time for speaking So the examiner doesn’t rush them or penalise pauses. 2. The ability to repeat answers If they block or struggle, they can restart without penalty. 3. Using assistive technology They can allow: Text-to-speech for prompts Recorded responses in some situations Breaks during the speaking test 4. OR (this is the big one): they can switch to a non-spoken assessment route. Some countries allow the candidate to replace the speaking test with a medically-supported alternative assessment, if the stammer is severe. 5. Medical certificate = automatic accommodations All he needs is: A doctor’s note Proof of stammer/stutter diagnosis (easy) And then he applies through the IELTS “Special Arrangements” form. This means: He CAN pass. He is NOT blocked. He just doesn’t know these rules exist.
