    I often receive emails from people from all over the world thanking me for the spelling lessons, podcasts and videos. Here are a few comments:


    Great blog, Joanne! Have really enjoyed reading it. We obviously think along the same lines when it comes to teaching older students.
    Regards, Shireen. Shireen Shuster from www.spellzone.com (Spelling Essentials book by Shireen Shuster)

    BBC Learning English have named How to Spell.co.uk the number 1 site for spelling "We often get asked questions about spelling and How to Spell.co.uk is a great site and videos... and fantastic games and quizzes..."

    I highly recommend this website. It's a no nonsense resource with clearly explained strategies for adults. I should also add the lady responsible for the site takes an active role in encouraging participants. Even after a few days of using the strategies my spelling has measurably improved and I am starting to enjoy writing for the first time in my life. Matthew. Check out the review on my YouTube video on 'good spellers see patterns and links - do you?

    "Thank you so much for your help, I am 26 and born in this country and my spelling is really bad it holds me back from a lot of things because it can be embarrassing. So I started teaching myself... Thanks again, S"

    Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated. Angela

    "I'm starting to enjoy writing and spelling thanks to you, it means the world to me, to be able to do this. It's not just for me but to set an example for my little girl, I didn't have the opportunity when I was growing up so thanks one million. I still have a far way to go but this is a start." N.B.

    Thank you Joanne for helping me, Yonas.

    "Hi Joanne...Just wanted to say thank you for your blog. I stumbled across it the other day while searching for spelling resources for my adult learners, and I have found it so useful. Will definitely be rooting through your archives to incorporate your methods and tricks into my lessons. I love the videos too. They make explanations so much easier. Thank you!" Suzanne

    I am a SfL teacher teaching in Adult Ed (publicly funded) and would like to use your videos in my work. Is that ok, are there copyright restrictions on your materials? Obviously the source and your rights as the author will always be acknowledged.vThey are terrific materials and you’ve clearly put in a lot of work, the videos are very well put together, well done and thanks for your help. Ruth S

    hi alamsindhi is here, i hope you are fine. i really enjoyed this lesson and found it helpful a lot. thanks. (apostrophes from my email lessons)

    Just wanted to say another thank you for taking the time to send me these wonderful emails. They are a great help! I'm starting my new teaching assistant job next week and I am a bit nervous because of my spelling but your emails are giving me more confidence.
    Thanks again
    Suna

    I would like to thank you for your amazing efforts. I think Joanne's website How to spell is the best way to learn the art of spelling. After leaving school in year 8 I have always struggled with spelling, even the most simple words. I'm now 39 years old and I recently sat an exam for year twelve and passed with a mark of 95% for my spelling. I hope she always has these resources available so others can benefit from her knowledge. B
