- Discover the 5 spelling rules that will help to transform your English writing accuracy! Don't worry! They are not as complicated as they look! I'll show you lots of examples (in context) to make it really easy for you! 📝 Get your FREE lesson PDF here 👉🏼 ewl.info/spelling-tips (There is a BIG quiz at the end!)
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR 18:28 - "skillful" is the most common spelling in American English. Skilfull is a very old-fashioned version. I apologise for any confusion I caused there!

It was funfull
Question Pls: today I read an email where it says: Did you had a chance to ……- is this form correct?
It's amazing how thoughtful and carefully produced the video is 👏👏👏
You're my favourite teacher, I'm still with you.
Perfect spelling!
Hello Lucy! Thank you for your interesting lesson. I love your British accent and your passion for teaching 🤗
This lesson is packed with a great rule of spellings. 😊 Thank you so much for Sharing this.😊
God bless you!
I'm from India , I'm weak in English language but I try to learn this and my score is 13/15❤❤❤
I love Lucy's teaching stile....❤❤❤
I wish the entire world got an A+ in your class, it might be a little better place to live, all I’ve seen is a bunch F’s walking around for way too long…thanks for adding your light to this world :)
Thank you so much teacher Lucy. I enjoyed your lesson and it was well explained. Appreciate your effort on this. Btw I got all correct
Lucy's energy is so high in this video
I'm from Angola...Pronunciation is also my favourite topic. Thank you for your nice explanation.
Thanks a million, Lucy! I really like your pronunciation! The most confusing spelling to me is 'dying' and 'dyeing' 🤔🤪
Excellent Effective Expression/Explanation.
Praiseworthy Noteworthy Trustworthy.
Thank you,dear Lucy.For me it is actually easier just to learn the words by heart😂these rules make me more confused!
😂 right?
I watch all your videos, you read and understand very well, thanks a lot ma'am 🙏
Thank you very much Lucy.. I really appreciate your work and dedication. Love learning with you!
Thank you, Lucy. This came in really handy for my students❤.
I have never seen such a good CZcams channel, with so much free knowledge and enthusiasm. I really can feel how you burn for teaching English. ❤❤
Actually, computer based learning with spell checking facilities made it too easy, but your fabulous video had delivered the rules and exceptions. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing useful tips, I appreciate it! 😊
English is my first and only language that I know, but I can listen to Lucy teach it all day long!

I love this channel best teacher ever❤❤
If a word contains an even number of letters, an odd number of vowels, and a prime number of consonants, then its plural must be formed by reversing the penultimate letter, and then adding a double 's' at the end. 😂😁
Dude...
That sums up pretty much the "rules" of English Grammer (Kelsey Editoon).
Cheers!
Thank you so much for this very useful lesson
I think the suffix 'y' is also a consonant or can be said to be started with a constant then it is also a exception if you pay attention
What a great teacher ❤
Love your content!
Beautiful session. Gracias. 🙂
The best English tutor ever.
Excellent presentation.
Very nice and helpful lesson Lucy. It's been a while since I watched your videos but I still love you. ❤.
Very nice lesson. The quiz....12/15.
Thank you for a video ❤❤❤
It really helps ❤
French has also a difficult spelling. Thank you for always interesting lessons.
I got all 15 correct 💯🎉
my favourite teacher❤❤
I’m zero level my darling ,but I never stop learn and try to write even I knew it’s incorrect but I never look back just keep my head up and smile and proud myself is learned without a real teacher ,because in 80 and 90 it doesn’t have any free lessons app or E S L ,but thank anyway!!
Please do make a video on Figures of Speech
Thank you for an interesting and a lovely lesson. I really love videos about pronunciation. I have only done mistake twice on the first exercise that i have to fulfil the words in n_ce and w_rd. I thought there were 'nice and word'. But then after revealing the answer, I understood better. 😊
Lesdi amin mi do naana ko guimol man gam nafan wuro am haa neeba sey bey nyooni amin do 😢😂
I love to watch this program.
Have a good day .
Good Luck .
I got 14/15, I got wrong "opener", the rule about the first stressed syllable is totally new for me. Thank you ❤ It was very interesting and useful 🤓
great lesson....LOVE
Dear lovely Lucy, while watching this video I realised you said "dedicate a little bit of time TO LEARNING". Instead, in that sentence I thought it was right to say "dedicate a little bit of time TO LEARN". Please help me by teaching in a new video why is it right to use "to learning" in that sentence instead of "to learn" also please mention examples for both in different sentences so we all may understand when to use each term in a sentence. Many thanks, I love your work and your willingness to help everyone to learn English. Gracias & ❤.
Not sure if you’ve already explained this topic in other video. 😉
This is wonderful ❤❤❤
Mrs, lucy can you make a video about the difference between wear, put and get dressed I'm Egyptian my name Is Youssef and I study English also I love it too much and I usually have fun when I watch your Videos and also I easily understand because your way in teaching Is VERY GOOD
Thanks Teacher ❤
