The breathing therapy was literally a breath of fresh air for me

ambassador

Jeff Tesselaar

Jeff Tesselaar has been an ambassador for the Del Ferro Institute since 2025. “I want to share my story so that others don’t have to go through the same thing. I was once told that I would never get rid of it. That I had to learn to live with stuttering. But that’s not true. You can get rid of it. I am proof of that.”

What people see, someone who gets stuck on words, is just the tip of the iceberg. Underneath there is so much tension, uncertainty and sadness. That’s why I tell my story. Because who knows, maybe one day we can abolish World Stuttering Day because no one needs it anymore.

I am an ambassador for Del Ferro because I know how much stress and uncertainty lies behind a stuttering problem.
