Why take this course?

THIS IS THE 4 HOUR SPEED READING COURSE PROGRAMME THAT CAN DOUBLE YOUR READING SPEED

You will read at least 66% faster or your money back.

The teacher, Alex Garcez, gave up his Engineering degree in the third year because he was a very slow reader, however, his weakness became his strength, after taking a speed reading course, and deciding he was not going to become a laborer but an entrepreneur. Since then he took a Business Degree, Masters in Marketing and Advertising, and developed the Revolution Speed Reading Method. He personally coached more than 3,500 people and most of his clients improve their reading speed by more than 100%.

With more than 9,000 clients taking this two hour course online in 53 countries, Alex expects to motivate people to read more books. His method is based on science, and he has achieved amazing results while coaching professionals from companies such as: Goldman Sachs, GE, J P Morgan, Google, Bloomberg, eBay, The Wall Street Journal, Sage, The Walt Disney Company, KPMG, Ernst & Young, Thomson Reuters, Adecco, Lloyds Bank, Citigroup, PwC, HSBC and O2.

Alex Garcez discovered that your brain loves speed, and he thinks that fast is fun - slow is boring! If you think you have short attention span to read books, documents and social media, then you probably read slowly and carefully. Instead of understanding the text you get bored and distracted, needing to skip back to re-read text countless times. The main reason is that your brain is too powerful to go at such a slow pace and will drift off into something more interesting to think about.

You will assess your reading speed at the beginning and throughout the course. So, if you spend 3 hours reading at work and improve your reading speed, on average, by 33%, you will save a whole month of work every single year.

You can find more information at his website.

I hope I'm wrong, but I get the uneasy feeling that I'm doing what so many other courses do - focus on speed and hope comprehension catches up. Why not improve comprehension and let speed improve the faster we comprehend. I hope I'm proved wrong. However, the delivery of the videos is better than I've ever experienced. Well done.

The quality of the video is not very good or the quality of the sound. There were some skips in the sound as well. I have a great internet connection, and powerful computer, so I know the problem wasn't on my end.

They should teach this in schools and colleges. MUST MUST MUST MUST SELF-IMPROVEMENT COURSE FOR HUMANS. UPDATE: After 6 months my new reading speed is 286 words per minute, comprehension - good. This course is the best investment I'd made on Udemy.

Narrator does great job of explaining the "how"s and "why"s, which makes it easy to trust the method.

I have not only increased my reading speed, I am now able to focus and not get sidetracked by my thoughts. The tips and ideas for increasing comprehension and memory are especially helpful. I now feel more motivated to read. The presentation was great - it felt like Alex was teaching me personally. Thanks for this very useful course.

I have immensely benefited from this course and it has been a life changer for me. I owe this entirely to Alex. Waiting for few more such courses from Alex. I would ask everyone to please consult the website www.thespeedreadingcoach.com. It is a gold mine and can positively motivate anyone. ........ Cheers

You will learn a lot of things to improve your reading and your comprehension. Alex share with sincerity and humor his skills and his resources. At the end of the course I feel I have had a momment with a friend. Also I'm French and I understand very well the explanations.

I've been consuming speed Reading material and courses, and this one has some new elements that i didn't see in other sources. That's good. In terms of the format, I wasn't utterly impressed with the video quality and settings. also for the reading tests on speed and comprehension there are far more accurate and practical menas (such as http://www.freereadingtest.com/free-reading-test.html?) Overall, I think Alex could do a make over of this course, doing so would make it a lot better! Any way, thanks for sharing and making this content available!

Alex's presentation of the process to increase your reading speed is well thought out and clear. He's upfront on telling that you will need to practice, so it's not a magic button. Even after trying it out after 1 day, there was an immediate improvement in my reading speed. I'm very impressed and enjoyed the course tremendously. Thank you, Alex.

When I began the program my reading speed was approx 340wpm and now I average around 600wpm - even faster when I relax and get into the flow. Thanks Alex

It took me a few dedicated hours to get through the first 8 sections -- putting me at about half way through the entire course -- and I've already seen a major improvement in both my reading speed and comprehension. Alex is a fantastic instructor. Not only is he clearly an expert on the topic, his friendly and upbeat personality removes the fear or apprehension that sometimes accompanies trying something new... allowing you to relax and finally let your brain start doing the work. Not only am I faster, but I am remembering concepts over simple details. There are so many tiny details in any text, that to try and remember them all (for me, anyway) usually means remembering few, if any. I am seeing the big picture, applying concepts, and remembering more. I'm excited to practice what I've learned this week and come back to the second half of the course refreshed and ready to improve even more. Thanks, Alex!

I attended a 4 hour course with Alex just over a year ago. This online course is great to reinforce this. But for beginners it is also a great way to get started!
