Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

How can I improve my spelling for GCSE English?

Study patterns, learn common rules, keep a personal error list, and practise little and often. Read widely, proofread slowly, and use mnemonics for tricky words.

What are the main differences between UK and US spellings?

UK English often uses -our, -re, and -ise, while US English uses -or, -er, and -ize. Be consistent with the version required by your school or exam.

Does i before e except after c always work?

No. It helps with words like believe and field, and with receive after c, but words like weird, height, and science are exceptions.
