Spelling is more important than it seems — it lays a crucial foundation for literacy, communication and broader academic success.
It’s easy to dismiss the importance of spelling, but for every such assumption, there is a strong, research-backed counterargument. Why bother learning to spell when autocorrect can do it for you? Spell checkers aren’t always available, and they don’t always catch all errors — usually only 30 to 80 per cent of misspellings. Does spelling even impact learning in other areas? Yes — research has shown that the processes underlying learning of spelling, reading and writing are all closely interlinked. But isn’t it only relevant for young children? Absolutely not. Continued, appropriate spelling instruction facilitates vocabulary development, increased confidence in communication, and the perception of professionalism and trustworthiness. For example, it has been reported that 80% of poorly spelled or written job applications are thrown out immediately.
