The table below shows spelling mistakes that my students made in their mock listening test. Notice in particular the mistakes related to double letters.
Tip: When you make spelling mistakes, write them on a list or in a table like the one above. Check your list every day or two.
I can't believe that someone can make those spelling mistakes. I think that they might feel anxious in the listening mock test so they made those mistakes accidentially. Anyway, thank you for the lesson. I will be careful with spelling word.

I should point out that the mistakes were made by different people (of several different nationalities). One individual person didn't make all of these mistakes.

Well, accidentially or accidentally? :)
