3 Speed Reading Techniques For Free

By Bert Carpio


There's more than one way to learn speed reading; in fact, there are quite a few approaches to it. But they all are pretty much based on the same principles that are good. That's not surprising when you think that it's about how your brain processes information. Many methods can help you to read faster, as long as they work in harmony with your brain's natural processes.

We all know what it's like to want to give something a shot before making a big investment. You can find about a dozen or so programs that you have to pay for, but why do that until you're ready and sure you want to do this. Learning how to read faster is fun because it's very much like a game. On the other hand, if you're new to this, then using free apps will give you an idea of how they work. And then you can always upgrade to a nice program that costs, but the benefits may be worth it.

Every so often, glance up from the page and focus on something far away. Mind maps are visual formats that can applied to any information except numbers, and this is just one approach that will increase your understanding of anything. When you come to all the free programs on the net, as you surely will, then take your time and go with one that's easy to use and appeals to you. Once you use this one time, then you'll come back to it again because it's a very intriguing tool and very helpful. These should be done in the preparation part before you do hardcore speed reading. Most people will not take the time to go this far into improving their reading, but it's one way you can gain an edge over all the rest out there.

Don't be lazy to make your personal vocabulary better and better, and this is something that very few people choose to do. Understanding what words mean will make you a faster reader because you won't have to ignore words you don't know or stop and look them up. Be sure you are using one of the approved, academic types dictionaries as they give you more important information. Remember that this is about ROI, which is a return on investment, and it's impossible to say how much that will be.

In case you never paid much attention to it, you'll notice when you read that you hear your voice in your mind. These are an obstacle to speed when you are reading.. There does not seem to be any easy method for getting rid of this sub-vocalization, however. Since this is such a strong habit, a varied approach may be the order of the day. Don't give up once you decide to go for it because it just takes effort on your part. One of the things about speed reading is you'll feel like you're starting all over, but it's just that it is something very new. Don't worry or compare yourself to anyone else when you first get started. There's nothing better than knowing that you can read a lot faster than 99% of the population.
