15 Hard to Spell Words (and Tricks for Spelling Them Correctly) English Writing Class with Alisha

This video covers 15 words that are hard to spell (and that get a lot of use). I aimed to choose words that we actually use a lot in everyday life. I like finding silly ways to help me remember information, so this video was a lot of fun to make. This video covers how to spell these words:
separate
unnecessary
embarrass
definitely
onomatopoeia
commitment
voila
questionnaire
assassination
mischievous
weird
Wednesday
indict
pronunciation
colonel

Of course, there are MANY more hard to spell words (I just can't include them all in this video)! But I hope this fun spelling practice session gives you some ideas for some common (tricky) words and gives you some inspiration to create your own spelling mnemonics!
