About Power Reading:

Q: How does Power Reading work?

A: Power Reading teaches you the secret of reading as fast as you can think. Just like riding a bike or typing, reading is a skill that must be developed through practice. Power Reading will teach you new techniques for increasing your reading rate that you have never before learned in school. Practicing these new techniques will allow you to read anywhere from 500-2000 words per minute (WPM).

Q: What about comprehension and recall?

A: Your comprehension and recall actually improve when you read faster, because you concentrate better. The slower you read the more time your mind has to wander.

Q: How will this help me in school?

A: Power Reading will teach you to read 2-5 times faster (average of 4.7) than your current reading rate. You will learn techniques that will cut your study time in half while allowing you to absorb more material.

Q: Can I make further improvements on my reading efficiency after the program?

A: Yes. Students have achieved reading rates as high as 3,000 WPM. Your speed is dependent on how much you practice.

Q: How long is the program?

A: The program is approximately 8-10 hours in length. This can be comprised of two 4 hour sessions for college students or adult learners or eight 1 hour sessions for students in 7th-12th grade (Course length can be tailored to the needs of the middle school or high school schedule.)

Q: Will Power Reading help me take tests?

A: Yes. Improving your reading efficiency means that you will be able to read faster, understand more, and remember the information longer. Developing these skills will help you take tests with confidence.

Q: Will this course help me understand difficult material?

A: Yes. The program is specifically geared for those who wish to excel at specific or complicated subject matter.

Q: Do you GUARANTEE results?

A: Yes. Power Reading is so educationally sound that we guarantee a full refund if you do not at least double your reading efficiency. Reading efficiency is calculated by multiplying your reading rate by your comprehension rate.
