Comprehension is just as important as speed when you’re reading. If you’re simply skimming over a text and you have no memory of what you read when you’re done, then you’re not speed reading, you’re flipping pages – and you’ll have to go back and start over again to get any information you need from the text. If you prepare your mind for what you’ll be reading before you even start, you can increase your comprehension rate, because you’ll be mentally alert and looking for that information, so even if you’re moving quickly through the text, you’ll remember what you read.
First, look at the outline of the text, including the table of contents, any chapter headings, and any subheadings that appear at the beginning of the book. These will give you an overall idea of what the book is about, how it’s organized, and where in the book you’ll be most likely to come across what you need to know. For example, if it’s obvious that the facts you’re looking for are in Chapter 5, it may be possible to entirely skip the first four chapters of the book.
An important tip for students is to read the questions at the end of each chapter if there are any. The person who wrote the questions has already done the work of identifying the most important information in the text, and if you read the questions you’ll know exactly what to look for in that section.
Read the glossary if it’s a book or other text on a topic you’re not familiar with so that new words don’t slow you down. We recommend writing down new words and looking them up as you read to keep your comprehension rate up, and if you take a few minutes to learn those new words before you even start, you’ll speed up your reading rate as well.
Good reading skills mean that you don’t stop when you’re done reading – think about what you’ve read, review the information, set out specific answers to the specific questions you had, and see if you come up with any new questions. You may have the information you started out looking for, but there are whole new worlds of information out there that you’re now ready to explore.
