In this powerful 18-minute video, students who stutter talk to teachers about their experiences and experts in the field of speech pathology answer questions about what works and what doesn't in the classroom.

A perfect length for an after-school inservice or short enough for a teacher to watch alone. The video answers common questions:

- how to respond to the child who stutters in the classroom
- what happens in speech therapy
- how to handle teasing
- how to deal with oral presentations
