How long will the course take me?

We do not like putting time frames to the course as it creates unwelcome pressure to complete it quickly. We want students to take their time, to enjoy the course, and gain the maximum benefit from it. However, to give you an idea, most students take around sixty hours to complete the twenty-three lessons to a level of competence. Yet, we have had some students who are really keen to extract all benefit from it, and follow every suggestion, such as in the Extra Mastery lessons and the Basic Grammar. As with everything, the more you put into Easy Spelling, the more you will get from it.

I went to school in Vietnam but now live in Melbourne Australia. My English reading is not very good. Do you suggest I still do the course?

Definitely. If your English reading is not good, then your English spelling is also likely to be poor. We suggest before you start the course that you ask a friend (who is a good reader) to help you. That person can explain what you don't understand. It is likely that you will not have to use much of your friend’s time, as you will learn quickly.

If I start the course but can’t finish it. Can I come back to finish it later?

Yes. At this stage we do not put time or date limitations to complete the course. However, we may in the future.

I’m a poor reader, so can I do the course with a tutor helping me or do I have to do the online course by myself?

Most students do the course on their own. However, some students who have limited reading skill prefer to have a tutor help them. We have the Easy Spelling Text reader. So Easy Spelling is a course that can read itself, all you have to do is listen.

Why should I use your spelling course and not another?

Easy Spelling combines 45 years of proven teaching experience. That along with the latest technology, such as augmented reality, delivers the most up to date and effective learning. To summarise, we have many years of practical experience, and "state of the art" technology.

What is our refund policy?

We offer a 100% money-back guarantee. If you're not completely satisfied with the course, please email us and let us know why it didn't meet your expectations. Once we receive your feedback, we will process your refund and return your course fee in full.

Is the course fun?

Good question. Jenny Lamond certainly tried to make spelling interesting. Students tell us that the way she developed the ‘detective steps’ and using multi-sensory methods (seeing, hearing and feeling), and the way she filled it with her lovely and clever humour, they have liked it. We also have developed our Spelly avatar who is present for the spelling games.

I home-school my two children. Will Easy Spelling help me in teaching them spelling.

It will, and it should give you a break from teaching them, with only your occasional support. And, the Extra Mastery and Basic Grammar pages will also help them. You will find that our reading app will help their reading skill.

Is there an age limit? I would like my twelve-year-old to do the course?

We have students from as young as eight, and one who is in his seventies. But we feel that nine is about the youngest age, but with a parent or tutor supervision/guidance. A child of twelve is likely to be able to do most of the course but with occasional guidance.
