I'm terribly bad at self - correction, especially when it comes to typos and spelling. This is why I used Grammarly to grammar check this post.If I am correcting and assessing my students' works or papers, I am almost impeccable, but if it is myself, my own writing I have to check ... no way: I'm almost blind to my own mispelling. This is why I have been very happy when I discovered I shared this problem with my beloved Jane Austen!Apparently Jane Austen was bad at spelling and grammar and got a lot of help from her editor, but the fact didn't prevent her from becoming a cult writer and one of English classic literature most beloved authors.
