Speed reading

What you have achieved

 

If you have practiced the methods described in this chapter, you have learnt how to use 

pointers to minimize regression. You have also learnt how to minimize the page turning and 

line return times. Using the pointing methods effectively will help to minimize or even 

eliminate the problem of regression in your future readings.

Step 4

WORDS AS A GROUP

 

 

What you will achieve

 

This step targets the problem of word-by-word reading. It also helps in further reducing 

vocalization, that is, pronouncing words as you read them. By the end of this step, you should 

---

have the ability of seeing a group of words as one and deriving meaning from the group. This 

will be a significant step toward achieving your speed goals.
