German.Steel study ways

Favorite Way: Studying the Consolidated Word List.

Roots: "Merriam-Webster's Dictionary of Prefixes, Suffixes, and Combining Forms". I've heard the list in the "Spelling Rules Book" from Hexco is more complete, though.

Lists: Spellit!, 2004 Consolidated Word List, Paideia, and I've heard "New Nat's Notes" from Hexco is good, though I never used it.

Flash Cards: Nope.

Techniques: Reading the words over and over and over.

Advice to other spellers: Figure out the right stuff to study, and if you want to do well, study a lot. Learn language patterns, Greek and Latin roots, and spelling rules.
