FAQ

Isn’t “speed reading” just a gimmick?

  • No, it’s not, and Reading for Results© is more than just a speed-reading course! It is a program based on scientifically proven techniques for increasing reading speed, plus comprehension and recall, by changing some of the old reading habits we’ve developed over the years and learning some new techniques as well.

There are other, more well-known courses taught across the country, plus I’ve seen TV commercials for home-study video tapes that look good. Why should I choose Reading for Results© over one of those?

  • The speed reading course with perhaps the highest name recognition is now taught in Atlanta only once or twice a year at most, and no local follow-up is available. In addition, participants must learn all the information and techniques in one day. Reading for Results© offers multiple sessions with built-in time for practice and habit changing. The video programs rely on self-discipline and self-motivation, are typically used alone, and can get very boring. How many times have we purchased something like this that sounds good at first, only to discover that the novelty soon wears off and we don’t continue or finish? Reading for Results© is locally owned and operated. Classes are conducted in groups which are fun and challenging, and practice sessions are documented, which decreases the need for unreliable self motivation

What if your course doesn’t work for me?

  • We guarantee that any student who completes the Reading for Results© Course who does not increase their reading score by at least 300%, will have his or her tuition refunded.

Why would I want to read faster anyway?

  • Maybe you don’t! But remember, Reading for Results© is more than just a speed-reading course. Both comprehension and recall are improved as well. Anyone who reads – for pleasure, for information, in studying, or as an integral part of a professional career, can benefit from the Reading for Results© Course.
