Seeing
boy
overcoming
stammer
will
leave you
speechless
There isn't much irony in Musharaf Asghar's nickname
being "Mushy." The 16-year-old student at Thornhill Community Academy
has battled a difficult stammer "since I can remember," and was the
target of some bullying until school officials put a stop to it. But teacher
Matthew Burton took inspiration from the film "The King's Speech,"
and, employing the same music-through-headphones approach to allay the boy's
angst, helped Musharaf conquer his fears as he prepared for some critical oral
exams. His triumphant moment was captured for the British TV series
"Educating Yorkshire," and there wasn't a dry eye among any of
Mushy's schoolmates. "I still won't be applying for any call-center
jobs yet though," he cracked. [Source]
