Chapter 5 - Speed Reading Digital Books

It is even easier to speed read digital books. All you need is internet connection. In a browser, go to:

www.accelareader.com/

Copy the text you would like to speed read from an e-book you are reading and insert into the website. Then press Settings and you will come to this window:

Average person reads 190 words per minute. I advise you to start with 240 words per minute and move up every two days. Increase the speed to 280, 320, 350, 380 words per minute. It is much easier to read with the application because the words just flash on front of you and you can just look at one spot.

The second line is the chunk size (words). When you start it’s best to do 1 word at a time. In a couple of weeks of practice, you could start doing two words per line.

You can also change the font size. I currently set it to 30.

Reading with the AccelaReader is a great exercise because you eventually learn not to vocalize words in your head but to just see them and understand the text.

Just to mention, I am not a promoter of the website, I found it on the web and use it because I like it and that’s why I share it with my readers.

Bonus Exercise:

To improve your comprehension, I would like to offer this exercise for you. When you read the words, create a mental image with it. Create associations with words, so that you automatically see pictures when you read. Also, it is good to take any text, scan through and choose 10 words and create bright images that will make you see the meaning of the text.

Enjoy!
