HOW TO READ FASTER IN ENGLISH - PART 2

Good reading strategies help you to read very efficiently. By using them you can get the maximum benefit from your reading with a minimum of effort. Last month we discussed the benefits of speed-reading techniques such as skimming and scanning. Here are some more strategies you can use to read better and faster.

Strategy #3: Active Reading
When you are reading a text in detail, it often helps if you highlight, underline, and annotate it as you go on. This emphasizes information in your mind, and helps you to review important points later. Doing this also helps to keep your mind focused on the material and stops it from wandering. This is obviously only something to do if you own the reading text! If you find that active reading helps, then it may be worth photocopying information in more expensive texts. You can then read and mark the photocopies. If you are worried about destroying the material, ask yourself how much your investment of time is worth. If the benefit you get by active reading reasonably exceeds the value of the book, then the book is disposable.

Strategy #4: How to study different types of material
Different types of reading texts hold information in different places and in different ways. They have different amounts of coverage. By understanding the layout of the material you are reading, you will be able to find easily the information you´re looking for.
