OK I need help. I am and have always been a terrible speller. Trouble is I am returning to work next week and I will be working for Oxbridge types. My spelling has gotten worse since being off work on Mat Leave and I am real worried. I know people judge you by spelling errors.
Typical problems I have:
- Does a word in in 1 l or 2 l's
- is it 'ce' or 'se'
3..Some word can never spell despite really trying to commit to memory.
- Are there 1 or 2 b's in rubbish- Example
- I always have to rely on spellcheck which as you know has it's drawbacks.
Is there anything I can do at this stage in my life. I worry about DS who asked me how to spell hedgehog recently and my mind went blank. How on earth will he manage to spell with me as a Mum?
