Ph.D. student with a stutter I am a Ph.D. student doing a Ph.D. in Data Science, and I have a mild stuttering problem. I am sick of this feeling that every other student or postdoc in my lab can do presentations, attend conferences, and teach classes easily. At the same time, I always have to plan whatever I say, even my name, even though I have the highest marks and the best research output in the whole lab. I am practicing every day, and my speech is improving, but I am sick of this situation and the amount of time I have to invest in such tiny improvements. I want to do presentations, attend conferences, and hold classes without worrying about being looked at as stupid or unprepared. I would appreciate it if anybody here is in the same situation and have any advice. Thank you. 🙌🏻
