Hear What Students Have to Say

Our reading programs are taught by professional teachers from the Institute of Reading Development, a leader in reading instruction since 1971. The Institute provides Speed Reading and Comprehension Training Programs for more than 125 colleges and universities around the country.

Your teacher will be skilled, knowledgeable, and passionate about reading. He or she will be driven to help you reach your full potential as a reader. Your teacher will get to know you and understand your individual objectives in the program, working with you individually in each lesson to help you set and achieve your goals.

You'll be very pleased with your teacher! Here's what some recent students had to say:
