LEARNING OUTCOMES

Students will understand the importance of why we wish to read faster.
The basics of speed reading will be explained. This is necessary as many speed reading courses offer, unrealistic expectations.
Students will learn the basic skills of speed reading, and will learn the most important technique to increasing reading speed.
Calculating your reading speed in words per minute, and also calculating comprehension will be taught.
Comparing your speed reading speed with high-speed readers.
The aggregation of marginal gains. This is an important section in the course, which helps students understand that gains are not made immediately, but happen over a period of time.
When teaching speed reading, it is useful to understand why people avoid reading. This section covers the main reasons people do not read, which will help them overcome these problems.
Motivation is a big problem when learning to speed read. The ability to speed read does not come immediately, and therefore motivation for persisting long enough to see significant gains is a problem. This section covers various motivational techniques to ensure that students achieve the highest degree of success.
The most common belief when talking about speed reading, is that comprehension decreases. We look at this subject in great detail, showing how comprehension can actually increase as your reading speed increases.
Understanding the seven step definition of reading.
Students will understand how to practice speed reading in order to achieve a higher reading speed. This regime of practice usually leads to an increase in reading speed by threefold.
