    Your spelling problems are not because you are dyslexic.

    Do you have a spelling section in your English class where every week you get a list of words to learn how to spell?

    You and I could do spelling stuff here on this board.

    I do have one tip. Stop tying in all caps, not only because it's considered shouting and against the rules of this site, but it will also help you learn to spell as some words require a capital and some don't.

    Also, stop using chat/text talk. Type out all words completely. Instead of the number 2 in your title, use the actual word "to". Texting is fine for texting, but in every day life, when texting isn't necessary, it's just laziness, and annoying to read.

    Thank you for not using caps.

    What are your grades like in spelling?

    What does your teacher tell you about spelling?

    Here's how you should have written your sentence:

    Yes, I do have it two times a week, but I do not think (not "fink") it is helping (not "hellping") me.

    It must be helping you because you can spell many words correctly.

    Do you practice at home? My son also has ADHD (which you mentioned in another thread) and he really has to work on his spelling every single day. He can't just be content to work at school, he also has to work at home in order to remain at the same level as his class mates.

    Now, let's start with your post and correct it.

    Quote:

    yes I do I have it 2 times a week but I do not fink it is hellping me.
    What would be the correct way to write the above sentence?

    Use capitals where needed, and complete words. Take your time, read it twice, and if you're not sure how to spell a word look it up.

    Edit: Never mind, WG already corrected the sentence for you.

    Is typing "f" instead of "th" a texting trick?

    Try again.

    It's not fank, and it's not u.

    Look it up if you need to. :)

    I'm thinking it's laziness because the OP did spell it correctly in her other thread.

    What about the word you? Why did you write "u" instead?

    Do you have a spelling test every week? If so, how do you study for it?
