Never was in any spelling bee except one out teacher set up in class to practice that weeks spelling words. I wasn't even aware of any regional competitions. In fourth grade I sucked at spelling. The teacher would take the words we'd mispelled on last weeks test and retest us on them the next week along with our new list. It was a good idea in theory but I ended having two whole lists of words eventually because I couldn't study the old AND the new well enough to whittle down the number of words that I got wrong.
Then in 7th grade I left public school. Mom signed me up for a medical terminology class. I learned the latin and greek roots to many daily words. After that my spelling improved tremendously.
