How do you improve your spelling?1.Just as we learn spoken language by hearing lots of people speaking, we learn written language, including spelling, by reading what a lot of people write. Spelling is not about how a word sound, it’s about how it looks on the page, which means you have to look at a lot of words on the page to learn the correct spelling about it.

Make a list of your commonly misspelled words.2.When you get a chance, look it up and put the correct spelling next to it.

3. If you look it up more than once, add it to your personal list.

Write! Write! Write! 4.When you look it up how to spell a word, write it down several times in a row and do it again a day or two later. 5.Write a blog, a journal, e-mails, a novel, anything that will keep you using words and pay special attention as you write to the words that come up wrong.

A. There is no substitute(代替) for reading a lot.

B. Put a mark next to every word you look up in the dictionary.

C. Those of us who spell well have a hard time explaining it, too.

D. Let others read your writings, and ask them to circle misspelled words.

E. You’re trying to build up the motor memory of writing it correctly spelled.

F. The only way to really learn a word is to use it, and that counts for spelling as much as for learning its meaning.

G. When you catch yourself spelling the same word wrong over and over, write it down somewhere.
