Take the assessment first
Use your normal reading pace. Do not complete a speed drill immediately beforehand; you want a representative starting point.
Open Reading Efficiency Score
Post-Workshop Practice · 14 Days
A structured follow-up challenge to help you rehearse faster eye movement, preserve comprehension and see whether your reading efficiency improves over time.
Complete the assessment before your first drill, then repeat it on Day 14 under similar conditions.
Before You Practice
After every completed assessment round, you will see your calculated reading speed, comprehension and Efficiency Scoring. You will also receive a Reading Intelligence Profile with behavioral interpretations and additional insights.

Open Reading Efficiency ScoreSee your words-per-minute reading speed, comprehension accuracy and Efficiency Scoring immediately after completing the round.
Use behavioral interpretations, friction analysis, strength analysis, opportunity guidance and development insights to improve your approach.
Take additional assessment rounds during the challenge whenever you want more data. For clean comparisons, use similar conditions each time.
Prepare Your Material
Bring your own book, report, article or chapter. The material should matter to you, but it should not be so high-stakes that a practice drill creates unnecessary risk.
Identify 8-10 options across academic, professional or personal interests.
Review the introduction, conclusion, headings, subheadings, bold terms, summaries and visual structure.
Decide what you need from the material and what level of comprehension the task requires.
The Core Method
Separate training speed from comprehension speed. The drill expands your visual comfort zone; the transfer read teaches you to use that capacity with control.
Read one chapter or section for good understanding. Time the read and briefly summarize the main idea when you finish.
Return to the beginning and move through the same material in 50% of your original time. Guide your eyes with a finger, pen or hand.
Move to new material and use a moderately faster pace. Check your understanding after each section and adjust when needed.

Your 14-Day Plan
Adapt the Method
Efficient reading is flexible. Match the technique to your purpose, the difficulty of the material and the consequence of missing a detail.
Inspect structure first. Slow down for definitions, evidence and unfamiliar concepts; use scanning to relocate key information.
Begin with the decision or question you need to answer. Skim for structure, then read high-value sections closely.
Experiment with a smoother visual pace without sacrificing enjoyment, imagery or the details that make the experience rich.
Your Results
Record two assessment rounds below for a direct comparison. You can still complete as many additional rounds as you find useful. The assessment itself calculates your reading speed, comprehension and Efficiency Scoring, while your Reading Intelligence Profile provides behavioral interpretations and deeper insights.
The strongest signal is higher speed with stable or improving comprehension. Use Efficiency Scoring as the overall balance check.
After Day 14
What changed in your pace, focus or reading habits?
Which material allowed you to improve without losing meaning?
What is one technique you will continue three times per week?
Ready When You Are
Establish a baseline, practice deliberately and reassess whenever another data point would help you understand your reading efficiency.
