I remember it by pretending that the Brits require kindergarten and Americans don't.

You don't start counting at 0, so going with Americans on this.

Ground floor is 0.

It is depicted like that in the elevators. First floor above is 1, first floor below is -1.

Doesn't American go from -1 directly to 1? Skipping 0 entirely?
