I used to be the best at spelling and always winning the school spelling bee's. Since I have been out of school I know my English has gone down hill.

I'm a very good speller. I can usually spell any word I want to and if I don't know the word I can often put it together phonetically. I have always been a good speller and I really think that good spelling, grammar, and especially vocabulary are very important to being successful in life.

I may not be a perfect speller but i can say i am a good speller because i read a lot. I love encountering difficult words because it gives me the enthusiasm to find its meaning and its proper usage. Not just with the spelling, but correct pronunciation matters to me, too.

I am to the common-used english words... if I am good in english, I am a good speller too. So, that is why I keep on studying english. And my stay here in myLot helps it develop in me.

I'm a very good speller. Since I was a toddler I loved books and reading, I learned to read at a very young age. So weird, I rarely ever asked my parents for toys, always for book to the point where my mom would deny books to me! Here my friend's parents where forcing them to read and my parents were denying me books. Lol. So yeah, I'm a very good speller and pretty able with phonetics, I can usually just sound a word out and can spell it properly if it's origins are English. I was going to pursue spelling bee contests, but I was so shy as a child. I now wish I would've tried out for those!

I'm a pretty good speller, however I have a horrible habit of using slang. I used to get good grades on papers in high school and college, and I still wonder how I did that since I'm really horrible with words now that I'm an adult. I think I make up words alot too. Oh well, atleast most people can understand me. HAHA!
