Internet Explorer does not have the spell check feature, but if you use Firefox or are a Mac user you should have it.

I may not know how to spell but I know when I have spelled a word wrong it does not look right and I start trying to sound it out (not easy with the English language) Once I get it close enough for the spell check to figure out what I am trying to say it works but sometimes I still have to google a word. Google seems to be a better spell guesser then the chrome browser.

Some people see others who are unable to spell well or have horrible grammar as uneducated, lazy and or dumb. I am neither. I am someone who has struggled all of my life to be able to learn something that for most people is easy and when most people are able to stop being educated at the age of 18 or collage I am not. I will forever have to learn because I am unable to retain anything I have learned

(P.S I had 20+ spelling mistake in this writing I love spell checker!)

Abby Quilts, I have a husband who is dyslexic. He is extremely intelligent but it takes him a week to read an article in a magazine. You sound like you may be too. Dyslexia was not diagnosed until the late 1970's and my husband did not find out until we were dating that he was dylexic. Teachers thought he was stupid or lazy but he was neither. Just keep working like you do. Each person has their own way of learning.
