  • Overall a very positive experience. I attended the Speed Reading course with Stand & Deliver. The course surpassed all my expectations, very informative, well-structured and organised materials. Stand & Deliver instructors are very good, they all are very knowledgeable whenever we get any doubts. I told my colleagues also about Stand & Deliver because I think it is a great place to learn! Would highly recommend it.

  • I loved the Speed Reading course with Stand & Deliver. Their support and content team are magnificent. I feel fortunate to be a part of Stand & Deliver. I was very impressed with the tutor's proactive approach and he obviously wanted to ensure we get the best from the training. I would recommend to all my friends to join the courses you offer. Great job! Also many thanks for the training and your after-sales support, much appreciated.

Double your reading speed in just one day!

Would you like to improve your reading time? Speed reading is not a gimmick, but rather a proven technique that is easy to learn. This Speed Reading course from Stand&Deliver aims to double the reading speed of every participant by the time they leave.

Some of the topics which will be covered in this course include calculating the 'normal' rate of reading and understanding how the eye functions and why speed reading works. Students will also learn how to use 'conditioning' exercises to enable them to read faster and more effectively. It has been shown that comprehension can actually improve with speed reading, and students will have the chance to see firsthand why that is. There will also be an emphasis on overcoming common reading problems and learning how to speed read in a way that is adapted to modern times- namely, from a screen. This course is suitable for those who want to improve their reading speed and increase the retention of the material being read. With some effort and practice, students can easily double their current reading speed.

The course has been published in emagister.co.uk. It lasts just one day and can be delivered both in Stand&Deliver facilities and in-company.
