HOW WE’RE DIFFERENT
Old-school speed-reading courses teach you to skim and don’t focus much on retention. Sure, speed is important. But it’s irrelevant if you can’t understand and remember what you’ve read. We place a much stronger emphasis on comprehension & retention. It’s not just speed reading, it’s strategic reading.
