- Consciously use different speeds of reading for different tasks: proof reading is slow, reading for understanding is medium, skimming to find the important bits, for an overview or to remind can be fast.
- Do not 'verbalise' each word, even in your head. Read chunks not words so that your eyes bounce say twice on each row.
- Decide why you are reading the piece first so that your objectives are clear. Bearing in mind your objectives, read the intro, chapter heads and conclusion first to check the rest warrants reading and if appropriate, just read the parts that achieve your aims.
