Why do you call it advanced reading?
ReadQuick is designed to help people that are already competent readers who wish to manage their information better. Increasing reading speed is only one method of improving information handling. There are other techniques that ReadQuick teaches during the course.

Will this help my technical reading?
Yes. Most highly technical passages contain a high percentage of normal English, which will be read at higher speeds. Previewing and Scanning techniques will help determine what needs to be read word for word.

Is this a remedial reading course?
No. ReadQuick builds on average reading abilities. Those with reading problems should seek out one of the remedial reading courses or teachers.

Will it improve my comprehension?
Yes, for a number of reasons. Your mind wanders when you read slowly. In the same way, your mind wanders when you listen to someone speaking very slowly. If you read at higher speeds your mind is active and will stay focussed and therefore absorb more important information.
Secondly, you need to read in new ways to improve comprehension, including previewing at high speed and then re-reading the important sections word for word while you fit the information into you existing knowledge.

Can this help in my post-graduate study?
To be sure. All study courses require an enormous amount of reading - the more you read the more knowledgeable you will become.

English is my second language - can this improve my English reading?
A difficult question. Advanced reading requires quick recognition of word patterns, not reading letter by letter. If you are able to recognise English words quickly then you are likely to see an improvement in your reading ability. If you read at 100 words per minute and you increase your speed to 200 you will certainly realise a great benefit.
