Speed reading is not magic or something that only mentalists can achieves, but it does require you to relearn the way that you currently read to correct some of the habits that may be slowing you down.
First, it is important to establish that reading faster can actually improve your comprehension rather than reduce it. An average person reads about 200 words per minute with about 60 percent comprehension, wheres a speed reader can read as many as 1,000 words per minute with about 85 percent comprehension. Comprehension increase with speed because it allows the brain to see the bigger picture, to contextualize and because a person completes a reading task quicker, it is less tiring and concentration is greater.
Factors and habits that reduce reading rate:
- Reading word by word
- Feeling the need to hear the words to understand what is being read
- Position of the page
- Poor concentration and moments of inattention
- Unclear reading function
- Listing music while reading
- You Enjoying the environment rather then reading
