Do you use the spell check feature? Just make sure you pay attention to what mistakes you are making - make an effort to look at how words are spelt, and you will soon improve!

Should (Capital S) I (Capital I) do an ("an" not "a" because the next word starts with a vowel) course (no comma - "because" is a conjunction and no comma is needed) I (Capital I again) am making loads (lots?) of spelling errors all the time?
Not a single spelling mistake but lots of grammatical ones.
It always pays to improve your English. It is something I've been working on for 20 years and I still have a long way to go.

I would say no to an English course, they'll teach you pretty much everything else besides spelling, and most likely you'll get a lower grade BECAUSE of spelling. I would say just pay more attention to what you are misspelling. Also, make sure to question yourself frequently...if you're in doubt, then look it up.
I set up my homepage to have the dictionary.com as a small entry box so that I can quickly access what I need to find out.
Another good, quick way to check it so to open up MS Word and type what YOU think is the way to spell something and let it check it.
Sometimes you may spell something correctly but in the wrong context such as "their over they're" instead of "they're over there". In MS Word, right-clicking on the word and going to "synonyms" is a good way to make sure you're using the right word selection by comparing it to another similar word. You could also try to find a spelling for dummies book. I'm not sure if it exists, but I'm sure something like it exists and will have lots of common misspelled/misused words.
Good luck to you.

Reading is the best way to improve your spelling/ grammar/English language. Books are the best source, but any reading material - magazines, newspapers, leaflets, computers, will all help.
An English course can't do any harm - it would more than likely involve a fair amount of reading, but you don't need an English course to pursuade you to take up reading - unless you need the motivation and encouragement. Good luck.

What on here? Why bother? I make loads of mistakes all the time. I try not to but I can't be bothered to spell check and it's not like you get a degree on Yahooism for being here or anything.

for persons like me, (i'm dyslexic) who've consistently had trouble with spelling and worked very difficult to conquer this handicap, it pains me whilst others who prefer to speak have not got the courtesy even to objective to do it impressive. Like utilising spell examine. It additionally hampers the understand-what proportion circumstances of what they attempt to speak. It has made me ask your self what those people might do in the pastime industry. Who might hire those that do no longer care how they're perceived in company. With the toddlers I extremely have encountered here and their carelessness with the language (spelling and grammar) is basically disheartening to think of that sooner or later they'll ought to locate a job and without skills in communique; it is going to likely be puzzling.

That or a dictionary! An English class unless it was at the elementary level probably wouldn't go over spelling though.
Oh and spell check helps!!!

I personally am having good practice with this yahoo answers. But if you think a course would be the way to go, go for it. Good luck to you. I think it nice that you want to improve yourself even if it is your spelling.
