Spellzone and EAL or ESOL

Although English spelling is so hard, most language courses do not offer any special teaching in spelling - expecting learners to pick it up as they study vocabulary.

Spellzone is used in over 50 countries worldwide and is suitable for:

  • learners living in an English-speaking country who don't have English as their language
  • those in other countries who are learning English as a foreign language.

Spellzone helps pronunciation as well as spelling, because the words are grouped by their sound.

Spellzone covers British and American English spelling and has a dictionary, a text reader and a translator on every course page.

  • Text reader - this helps with the pronunciation of words.
  • Dictionary- it's easy to check the meaning of any word, so Spellzone can also help with vocabulary.
  • Translator - the translator provides another method to check the meaning of words by allowing you to see them in 92 languages.

"Thank goodness for Spellzone during this remote learning phase. The site is easy for students to navigate independently and they're really enjoying the activities and spelling games. You get an awful lot for your money with Spellzone. Really reassuring is the very prompt response with helpdesk queries. I've very rarely needed the helpdesk, but when I have, the issue has been addressed and sorted within a very short time."
