Learning to spell words correctly is important as it helps lay the foundation that you will need throughout your education and life. Spelling is important because it aids in reading. It helps cement the connection that is shared between sounds and letters. A good sense of spelling is essential for any aspiring individual. Erratic spellings spoil the charm of writing and only aid embarrassing situations in academic, professional and personal lives. So, conquer the English spellings before they conquer you.
