The study revealed that impact of stuttering influences negatively on learners with stuttering. With the result showing a composite mean value of 3.12 indicating a much higher outcome than the benchmark score of 2.50 expected of learners generally. Also, there was significant mean score difference in the learning experience of male and female learners who are stutterers as male students are much more affected by stuttering disorder than female learners in the studied schools. Therefore, it was recommended that students who are stutterers should endeavour to participate fully in classroom teaching and learning experience and practice their reading repeatedly so as to develop the capacity to master the pronunciations of words, sounds and syllables. \u0000  \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":197960,"journal":{"name":"Global Journal of Educational Research","volume":" 27","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141670958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
