Description
This Spelling Rules course is for both British and American English users who who feel embarrassed by their spelling, who've had a bad experience at school, have not really had to use spelling much but now because of emails, social media, writing reports, etc. suddenly need to improve spelling for their work, training, and to improve their job prospects, or maybe help their children with their spelling.
This is a clear, friendly step-by-step course that builds your spelling knowledge and confidence in spelling because it's not about learning obscure spelling rules but useful, very helpful rules like the simplest rule: adding -es to nouns and verbs, we'll look at rules such as drop the 'e'; silent 'e'; and the 1:1:1 doubling up rule - these all help your reading too. We'll start off with looking at the Key Terms and Vocabulary of Spelling, which is a look at some very useful words that we need to be able to understand these rules.
It's mainly a video based course with some worksheet attachments in the resources for you too.
Who is the target audience?
- this course is meant for American and British adult native speakers
- a good level of English for non-native speakers
- not for beginner ESL students
