Use Personal Best Spelling if you like the idea of learning from computer games. It helps you learn new words quickly so you will remember them better. It does this by building in practices and drills based on a widely used learning method known as "Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check." It also enables you to test spelling, has built-in lists, ready-made special purpose word lists and helps you learn vocabularies of specialized occupations. If you consistently spell a word incorrectly, the program captures it as a learned error and saves it for correction and special treatment. It uses a user-friendly and effective learning method called "Old Way/New Way" to correct habitual errors, eliminate uncertainty and place homonyms in their proper context. This application even helps you to learn sentence structure with a special contextual feature that allows you to enter multiple words at one time. This feature also enables you to learn foreign words in their context.
