Become a Better Reader

“I often read and re-read my textbook. Then, at the end of the page I have forgotten what I have just read. What can I do to improve my reading skills?”

  • Eliminate habits that hinder your reading
  • Adjust the speed of your reading to the purpose of your reading
  • Expand your vocabulary (try crossword puzzles)
  • Establish a reading strategy (what do you need to accomplish?)
  • Read for pleasure (newspaper, magazines or romance novels)
