Hello William,
Thanks for the input. I am doing fine with the practice tests & have all the confidence in the world that I will pass the test when it is time for me to take it. Regardless whether I spell center this way or this way "centre."
I still do things the American way & that includes my spelling, and anything else pertaining to America. I respect the British way of doing things but I'm not giving up my right to be the person I want to be, just because I'm over here.
Also, my husband who is a UK citizen & has gone to University here in the UK was told that a person needed to be consistent with their writing. To use either American English or UK English but not to mix up the two. I have chosen to continue with American English & he does UK English which can bring about some very interesting conversations between us.
Thank you,
Ellen
