Well, just appease your teacher I suppose. I've always spelled many words in the King's English instead of American English. I never understood why they changed it or why we don't use the metric system either. I've lived most of my adult life outside the country as I do now and you basically have to learn all the basics over again.

At least you are using a proper language though, so many students couldn't spell to save their lives these days thanks to IM and SMS abbreviations being confused with actual language.
