This approach appears to work with people who like to group words in a simple and logical way. It is called 10 steps to success.

Once you have learned these arrangement of words further spelling studies may be based on it. Whilst your vocabulary increases and new, difficult words appear, you will be able to add these words to the relevant chapter, as each chapter contains a note page, where you can record new words.

People enjoy this spelling course because the arrangement is very logical. So if you love mathematics but English is your weaker subject then this Spelling course should be your choice.
