Summary/Abstract: In this paper we bring the results of exploratory research conducted in order to know in detail the way in which high school students perceive and evaluate their own skills and teaching orthography checking, and better identify the problems that the students have while learning and applying orthography rules. An anonymous survey was completed by 100 students of the final grade classical Gymnasium (R Serbia) in June 2014. The survey results showed, among other things, that high school students are not familiar with the target learning orthography, nor the importance of knowing and applying orthography rules in written expression. This is a valid incentive for serious review of strategies to improve the teaching of orthography. It can be a starting point for the new comparative research to gather empirical material about orthography and teaching of orthography in neighbouring countries.
