There are many Hrithk Roshans in our whatsapp groups

Dear friends, 

I fully agree that Hrithik Roshan and now Salman Khan are our role models. 
They both reached greatest height.

But what about us? No need to reach their levels. But we  can achieve something with or without stammering.

One of our members who attended Mr. Balasubramaniam's course along with me was a severe stammerer. 
After sustained speech therapy, now he was speaking fairly well.

SOME ACHIEVEMENTS MADE AT CHENNAI CENTRE & WHATSAPP GROUPS

1)      SURYA (CHENNAI SHG MEMBER)

   Surya, a member of Chennai Centre studied at Anna university, Chennai. He used to come to Chennai centre almost 5 days a week for more than one year and will participate in all the activities.
His father is a poor farmer and Surya studied with the help of bank loan. He couldn't afford to buy a smart phone and hence not in the whatsapp group. His college is 2 km from Chennai centre. He used to come by a friend’s cycle.

Five of my class mates were attended one Chennai SHG meeting a month before. In those five, two were settled in USA and one in Australia.

WHY LESS AWARENESS ABOUT STAMMERING

The main reason for less awareness of stammering was because of Stammerers. 

Yes, the stammerers alone are responsible. Normal speaking persons definitely can not understand & also may not know what kind of problems especially emotional turmoil that all the Stammerers are facing in their day to day life.

How could normal persons understand our problem unless WE explained to them.

THE POWER OF WHATSAPP GROUP

The following was posted by Satheesh, from Trichy, TN. He is a member of Tamil Super Speakers Whatsapp Group. He is now perusing MBA at Madurai. He doesn’t have a facility to attend SHG meeting. 

But once he had visited Chennai Stammering Care Centre in the month of May’2014,stayed there for 3 days, learned speech therapy and attended one SHG meeting. That’s all. He become whatsapp member from May’2014 onwards. 

The following message was posted by him to the whatsapp group on 12.01.2015. The purpose of posting the message in this blog was to show the other PWS that there are lot of ways to achieve our goal. IF THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY.

CHENNAI SHG MEETING REPORT HELD ON 04.01.2015

Today meeting was a special one. I have organised a tea party for 5 of my class mates (2 from USA, one from Australia and 2 from Chennai). 11 members were attended today's meeting. Altogether 16 members were present in the today's meeting.

It's was very informative as well as an enjoyable one. Each member were spoken and everyone's speech was listened attentively by my 5 class mates.

Congratulations!

Congratulations on starting this new blog! Reaching out to even one pws and helping him is certainly better than feeling helpless and unhappy. There are many ways of coming out of the stuttering bog. We need to choose one road and follow it with some faith and committment.  I am sure many readers will interact, learn, practice and benefit by the wonderful ideas on this blog and the website - and above all through face to face interactions with Mr Manimaran, who has achieved a lot in life and has learned a lot from his stammering.. As a coach, he is offering his wisdom for free. My sincere best wishes.
