Yes, I agree with your teacher. You do need to improve and INCREASE your comprehension.

In improving your spelling skills, I suggest that you find yourself some spelling lists of your level. You can ask these from your school, teacher, or even download it from the internet. Try searching yahoo.com or google.com.

Then, for at least an hour a day, take twenty-thirty words which seem difficult, and spell them. Memorize them. Quiz yourself. Take a paper and pencil. Write and rewrite them. Ask a friend to quiz you on it. Do this everyday and you will definitely improve your spelling skills. Also, those quizzes that you have taken in the past? Respell everything again until you get them. Practice makes perfect after all.

For comprehension, there is no better way to increase it rather than actually reading books. Get good stories. Stories which are not too hard, but not to easy either. If you stumble on some words that you don’t understand, check the dictionary. Make yourself a small list of those words. Look them up once you make the time to search for them.

And lastly, I suggest that you SPEAK good english. That way, you improve not only your spelling and comprehension skills, but also your verbal ones. Watch good movies those with witty conversations, and deep plots. Avoid teenage flicks, and movies like that since they just use cliched wordings.

Happy learning! So much is in store for you. Hope I’ve helped somehow.

Hi,

its simple. Start with learning 2-3 words in a day. Take a dictionary and learn spelling of 2-3 words daily. Read newspapers or books and be cautious of the spellings written in them.

All the best.

I think you should try to study more at home.Reading books and magazines in English would help.You have got to focus on the skills you haven’t mastered yet. Take some time to study English everyday.You can also look for some help on the Internet.The BBC website is great and they offer courses for free.Why don’t you give it a try?
