I'm slogging through a wicked pile of US history exams and have been keeping notes on my favourite misspellings just for fun.

Atop the leaderboard is "exhasggerbated."
Cursive isn't the only thing they don't teach in school anymore.

Back in 1st grade, a teacher took me to his 6th grade class and had me read something. Then told them how could it be possible that they couldn't do it.
My 3'7" self couldn't believe it. Those were adults to me.
Flash forward to 4th grade, saw a classmate struggling to read and thought "now I get it"
However, I've had documents rejected because bulleting and formatting wasn't correct

It's interesting seeing a new generation of young adults who have done all of their writing on computers, never by hand, with the safety net of spellcheck. When it's gone, things get pretty fast and loose.
I wouldn't ever shame a specific student in person for amazingly bad grammar. On the other hand, we professors totally do hang on to the best examples and share them (names redacted) among ourselves...
Full disclosure: I have no idea how to use the Uber Eats app.

I seldom write on paper these days, and my penmanship was never good - probably tried to imitate my left handed sister and no one corrected it.
And haven't seen many people who read a lot have bad spelling.
Always disliked grammar, so am not a good English / Spanish teacher. And can't separate syllables in English.
