Learnthat members preparing for the Spelling Bee Bangladesh, please PN us :-)

A special thank you to our volunteer of the year, Ms. Mary Anne Clark, Ph.D.! She singledhandedly recorded and edited over 1,000 files, along with editorial support. Thank you!!

A little while ago we received a video testimonial from one of our members, Ms. Amy Coffey. She is a homeschooling mom of seven, and she writes: "Here is a movie. I am no movie star. Thanks for your help and thanks for the program." https://youtu.be/9upULw2GFfw

The new year is about to start, and there is lots of buzz and activity in the spelling bee hive! The first Spelling bee families have entered the 2016 list of words, for example here:... If you are new to spelling bees, make sure you master these 450 words first, then continue with the Spell-It list: Finally, refine your spelling skills by continuing with our spelling bee goal module, which contains close to 25,000 words considered spelling bee words. With a bit of luck, these will carry you all the way to Washington, D.C. Want your friends to get involved, too? Your username serves as a 10% coupon if entered as the referral code when they sign up for Premium tutoring. Happy New Year and best of luck in your spelling bee!
