You're not wrong.
I take it you already know
Of tough and bough and cough and dough?
Others may stumble, but not you
On hiccough, thorough, slough, and through.
Well don't! And now you wish, perhaps,
To learn of less familiar traps.
Beware of heard, a dreadful word
That looks like beard but sounds like bird.
And dead: it's said like bed, not bead,
For goodness sake don't call it deed!
Watch out for meat and great and threat
(They rhyme with suite and straight and debt).
A moth is not a moth as in mother
Nor both as in bother, nor broth as in brother,
And here is not a match for there,
Nor dear and fear, for bear and pear.
And then there's dose and rose and lose--
Just look them up--and goose and choose
And cork and work and card and ward
And font and front and word and sword
And do and go, then thwart and cart,
Come, come! I've hardly made a start.
A dreadful Language? Why man alive!
I learned to talk it when I was five.
And yet to write it, the more I tried,
I hadn't learned it at fifty-five.

-- answer removed --
I took my dgree and my masters degree at evening class..plus lots of other course. I find it helps me to focus on lessons and the interaction with other students really helpful...particularly if they ask questions of the teacher that you are not sure of. I do not work well at home and always went to a library to work on assignments. I would find jobs to do at home or the tv would atrract me to it...or my husband would talk to me! You have to work out which will suit you best, home or school. For me it is school but for my friend it was home. Where will you find it easier to work and find the help you need. Well done...I wish you every success......
Do you do a lot of reading? That will help with your spelling and understanding of punctuation and grammar. There a few spelling errors in here (e.g. a lot is two words not one) but the meaning is clear and the spelling is far better than that I see from many students. Doing crosswords - non-cryptic ones- can help too.
