Speed Reader-X Short Description:
"Increase your reading speed using the latest teaching methods"
Speed Reader-X Long Description:
"Speed Reader-X® is an efficient and to-the-point training system that concentrates on speed techniques. It uses the latest software which is designed to help you practice speed reading exercises.

The human brain is capable of taking in information much faster than the average person can read. Speed Reader-X teaches a new, visual method of taking in information.

Speed Reading is not pushing harder. It is a new method of viewing words and sentences. Do you find yourself reaching the end of a paragraph and realize you have no idea what you just read? Your brain became bored and tuned out what you were reading. Speed Reader-X will retrain your brain to take in information as fast as it can.

The Speed Reader-X Training System can be used by anyone with a third grade reading level or higher. It is for children, teens, college ages and adults.

There are many speed reading systems that claim you can double your reading speed in five or ten minutes. The truth is anyone can double their reading speed anytime without any instruction. You simply push harder and read faster. There is no trick to that. The problem is that you cannot sustain this reading method long enough to read a book or magazine. Speed Reader-X gives you a new way to look at words and take in information without that little voice in your head slowing you down.

Speed Reader-X is designed to make learning speed reading fast and easy. The system consists of 10 lessons. The lesson objective is explained before the lesson begins. You then practice the lesson using the software. As your eyes scan the text on the screen you are un-learning bad habits and learning new, good habits. You click the Next button, words flash and you begin to quickly overcome the roadblocks you were taught in school.

The software helps you retrain your eyes to move smoothly over text without stumbling over words. After completing each lesson, you can see your results on the screen. It couldn't be easier."

Much cheaper than similar products in the market
Reviewed by Peter Sturo on 11/21/2008

I never thought of to learn to speed read before, until recently I read an article with title "Are you reading with a little voice in your brain now? You are actually reading at a first grade level…" I look for products around to learn to speed read, that's why I come to Speed Reader X. Here are the pros and cons for the product in my opinion:

Pros:
Much cheaper than similar products in the market.
Has been launched for a few years and undergone 10 version upgrades, thus it is tweaked for user experience.
Has already a customer base, and has been used in some colleges and organizations, so it is a mature product and not like those buggy ones.

Cons:
Some part of the system may not work on MACOSX.
Other than the pros and cons, I've also looked into other aspects of the product, like best practice, development history, etc. You can go to have a look.
