Spelling is one of the most important pieces to a written document. Good spelling makes a persons writing look more professional, and most of the time the reader will judge the writer if their writing is of poor spelling quality. You do not want to send an email to your boss and have him wonder why he hired you after seeing your spelling. To reduce spelling errors, I have came up with a short list of tips that everyone could use.
1) For a questionable word, don't just scan through the possibilities in your mind, say it outloud.
2)Have someone proofread your article.
3)Put your writing away for some time, and than come back and try again.
It doesn't matter if you're a ivy league student or a fourth-grader, good spelling should always be at the top of your list when proofreading or revising your writing.
