Teaching Aid

Again, Amazon to the rescue. I am a tutor and I teach English on a "one -on- one" system. All of the students that I've had, have a problem with "spelling". When I get the to a level where they can write an "Essay", their spelling is what brings their grade down. With this book, I can assign homework and make lesson plans. "Better Spelling" is a great "teaching aid".

There are mistakes (Exercise 1.3), but this is the best *adult* spelling book I've found.

There are mistakes in Exercise 1.3, which is pretty much unforgivable for spelling book. However, I've looked high and low, and this is the best book I've been able to find. It's from the 1990s (for college students), so it's a little dated but still relevant. It's laid out well, not super condescending, and the words are ones that I have legitimate trouble with. I learned quite a bit from the instruction and the practices that I either didn't pay attention to in elementary school or was never taught. I've supplemented with a spelling app where I can upload my own word lists... like tenet (can't even google that word!), chauvinism, bureaucratic, etc.

Great book

Really helped us. It is very detailed. It has tests to take then based on the test results it has you read certain pages to help with what you missed.

Better Spelling in 3 Minutes

good foundation

This book unlike others where the author wants to impress you with their knowledge of how words are spelled just gives you good simple rules and information to become a good speller. It has helped me immensely and continues to do so as a reference. Well worth the purchase and effort to learn what it teaches.

This book is supposed to improve your spelling???

I was seriously confused when I went through the diagnostic tests with my daughter. The very first problem on one of the very first tests has the words "immediatly" and "enviroment" as being spelled correctly. What?!?!? I thought I was going insane. Maybe I read the answers for the wrong test?? Nope. Those are the words they had marked as being spelled correctly. I have not gotten past the diagnostic tests, and am now, seriously considering whether or not I want to proceed. I expected more from a book that promises "Better Spelling in 30 Minutes a Day." [I do realize book titles should be underlined, but was not able to do that on this review format. :) ]
