The impact of stuttering disorder on students’ oral performance

Abstract

Stuttering concerned as a largely ambiguous communication disorders, which can have long-term affects for people who stutter. The current study investigates stuttering effects on students who stutter. This work aims to help students to confront their stuttering. The most important goals of this thesis is to highlight the teacher’s role in helping stutterers to stop their stuttering. Through our objective, we suggest more hypotheses: first, if students have stuttering disorder, their level of achievement in speaking skill will decrease and affected negatively. Then, we believe that stuttering can be controlled. Finally, we hypothesize that if those students have given more importance and care, they will be good and fluent speakers. Thus, we work on two methods (questionnaire and observation) to examine both teachers and stutterer feedback. The research findings go hand in hand with our hypotheses which emphasize the speaking skill as very essential to overcome the stutterers’ difficulties and to improve their speaking skill.
