Speed Reading at the International Medical University (IMU)!

Can't wait to facilitate my first workshop that is dedicated to Speed Reading at the International Medical University (IMU) on June 25, 2014.

If you need someone to buzz your staff and students to speed up their reading habits, so that they can focus more on being creative and innovative....Please buzz me, if you like what you see below! 

WORKSHOP

Imagine if you could read a 200-page book in 20 minutes? Did you know that there are people in this world that can do just that? How about you? In today’s fast-paced knowledge and innovation driven economy, speed-reading is increasingly becoming an essential to master. In this half-day interactive crash course on speed reading, we will explore several techniques we can apply to read faster and smarter with comprehension.

Once completed, you should be able to increase your reading speed by 200 - 300 percent. As you practice, your comprehension rate will improve with your newly acquired speed reading pace. As you increase your reading speed, you will have more time to focus on people engagement, quality, creativity and innovation, which are key essentials to succeed with education, work and life for the 21st century.

OUTCOMES

At the end of this workshop, you will  be able to:

• Use at least 3 techniques to increase your reading speed;
• Apply the SQ3R method for better comprehension; 
• Use at least 2 memory techniques to remember more of what you have read;
• Increase your reading speed by 200 - 300 percent; and
