subject: Speedreaderx Review [print this page] How much more can you get done at college or work if you could read twice as fast? Three times faster? What if you could read Ten times faster and remember more!!
The average person reads around 250 words per minute which is the rate you speak. Speed readers often double their reading speed by lesson 3.
Once a person has learned how to speed read, they usually find their comprehension improves as well. This happens because your brain is no longer bored during reading and it is actually excited and active when taking in words.
Speed Reading means your brain no longer becomes bored and tunes out what you are trying to read.
You may have seen other systems making outrageous claims like reading 10,000 words per minute. Hog wash! That is not real speed reading, that is skimming and it does not work. Perhaps you have seen the systems that claim you can look at a page and...somehow...magically...know what it says through a photo reading method. Again, that will never work and that is not speed reading.
Real speed reading is a method where you re-train your brain to break the old habits you were taught in third grade. Those reading methods were fine when you first learned to read and you needed to know the mechanics of reading. But now, those same methods only slow your reading down. You must learn a new way to visually take in words without that little voice in your head slowing you down. An automatic way of reading that becomes second nature and is much faster.
High intelligence is not needed for Speed Reading. Anyone, of any intelligence level can learn the speed reading methods. If you can watch a movie and understand what is going on, then you can speed read. Speed reading uses the visual centers of your brain instead of the vocal or sub-vocal centers which do not process information as fast as visual centers. You already have the ability, you only need to learn how to tap into it.
Every minute you put off learning Speed Reading is another minute you will spend slowly struggling through reading materials, along with everyone else. Don't put yourself through that stress any longer. Why would you put off something that can improve your life in only 10 minutes a day. The solution is right here.
