Stuttering, also known as stammering, is a speech disorder in which the flow of speech is disrupted by involuntary repetitions and prolongations of sounds, syllables, words or phrases. The exact etiology, or cause, of stuttering is unknown and there is essentially no cure for the disorder at present. However, several treatment options exist that help individuals to better control their speech:
+ Fluency shaping therapy: A therapy that trains people who stutter to speak less disfluently.
+ Modification therapy: A therapy that makes stutterer to take easy.
+ Electronic fluency device: Altered auditory feedback (AAF) / delayed auditory feedback (DAF)
+ Medications

This APP provides tools to help fluency shaping therapy:
+ Add words/sentences: User inputs hard words on which he/she might stutter, presenting image and related sentences are collected automatically.
+ Speak words: User practices these inputted words on relax. The APP can show user with text or image for the word.
+ Speak sentences: User practices collected sentences.+ The APP uses Speech Recognizer technology to recognize what user speaks.
+ DAF is integrated.

Besides, the APP tries to build an environment in which a baby learns a language to research whether or not this environment helps. This environment presents a word image to a user so that the user builds a direct connection between whats in his brain and what he speaks.
