How Speed Reading Works
PACING:
Hand movements can cause you to accelerate your reading speed. We’ll shortly teach you hand movements that will accelerate your reading ability. Try each one and see which suits you best.
BASIC METHOD:
The basic pacing movement utilizes the index finger of your dominant hand, i.e. right handed use right hand, to scan a line by running your finger under the type you are reading. Turn the page with the unused, non-dominant hand. Never move your head when reading, keep it still.
To understand this concept, you must understand that your nemesis “The Babbler” (your own inner voice) is reading to you in silent speech and then it goes into your brain.
You’ll read without sub-vocalizing. You already know the basics: Pace your eyes so swiftly over a line that you don’t have time to form the sounds of the words or syllables in your throat.
To understand this concept, you must understand that your nemesis “The Babbler” is reading to you in silent speech and then it goes into your brain. We did experiments in Hawaii, New Mexico, Florida, and elsewhere. It appears that those with the slowest speaking rates have naturally slow reading rates. With this method, your speaking rate will no longer limit your reading speed. You can read as fast as you can think. What I am saying is you can read as fast as your mind can work.
