I ask my learners to create personal dictionaries if they feel spelling is something they need to improve, so why not do it myself? Also, as much as I like my plain English idiolect (ha!), I do want to improve my vocabulary. Mainly as I’m sick of Googling meanings and/or not being able to spell words so much so that it can take twice as long to read/write, and then understand later!
