Why Speed Reading Is Worth Learning

I've written about speed reading again and again. Why? Because I truly believe it's an amazing skill that many students miss out on.

I know from personal experience what a difference a good reading speed can make compared with a poor one. It's a huge difference.

Speed reading also has an interesting history. One of the first courses dedicated to widening a person's reading field (so that they could read faster) was developed at Harvard. This became something of a trend during the 1940s, and many others followed, using the same type of film material to help their students read faster.
