The Reader's Edge®
Speed Reading Software Program

Learn to read faster with improved comprehension. How? The Reader's Edge Pro is a self-paced software program that uses computer generated visual exercises to help you unlearn the habits of slow readers, and learn the habits and skills of rapid readers.

The Reader's Edge Pro teaches Fluent Reading -- Effective and Efficient Speed Reading™. Fluent Readers read better and faster, with improved comprehension and recall . . . and get better grades. Use The Reader's Edge just 15 minutes every other day for a few weeks and you will double or triple your reading speed and comprehension.

The Reader's Edge teaches enhanced reading skills to individuals of all ages. Effective reading skills are needed in today’s information-based society that ultimately judges individuals on their ability to read. Unfortunately, proper reading skills are not being taught in today’s reading curriculums.


The Reader's Edge Speed Reading Software
The most advanced,
user-friendly, speed
reading program
available.

The first step in becoming a Fluent Reader is to differentiate between "less efficient" and "more efficient" reading skills. When learning to read, we are taught to read out loud, or vocalize each word, as we read. As we get older, we are expected to read silently, without any formal training... this is where The Reader's Edge comes in. It helps you easily and naturally develop the skills of efficient readers.

Product Highlights:

  • Ages 5 to adult
  • Unlimited number of users
  • Install on up to 2 computers

Frequently Asked Questions about The Reader's Edge®

What makes The Reader's Edge so unique?

How will increased reading speed and comprehension benefit me?
Most people read at an average rate of 250 words per minute. Just a 100 words per minute increase, without considering other factors, would mean that you would read the same amount of material you currently read, in 60% of the time you now spend - an improvement of 40%... this increase is the equivalent of about 12 extra 200,000 word books a year!!!

What is the difference between inefficient and efficient readers?

          Less Efficient Readers
• See and read one word at a time.
• Eyes fixate (stop) on each word.
• Re-read words.
• Vocalize (subliminally or lip) each
   word read.
• Vocalize while reading, limiting
   reading speed to 160-220 words/
   minute, the rate at which we speak.
Are unable to derive the meaning
  of new words from the context...
   resulting in poor comprehension.

            Efficient Readers
• See and read in groups of words.
• Eyes move smoothly.
• Do not re-read words.
• Do not vocalize... there is no limit
   to reading speed.
• Your brain is capable of handling
   thousands of words per minute.
• Derive meanings of words from
   context, gaining better
   comprehension and dispelling
   the popular myth that one must
   read slowly to have good    comprehension.

 

How long will it take to see improvement?
Spend 15 minutes every other day for at least two weeks doing the Reader's Edge exercises and you will double your reading speed. It's that easy. Imagine in two weeks being able to read twice as fast as you currently do with improved comprehension and recall.
