Scientific work demands a substantial amount of reading, often making it one of the most time-consuming activities in research. Do you also sometimes feel guilty about not reading enough?

What if you could increase your reading speed by 25-100% (depending on text complexity and your English proficiency) while also enhancing your comprehension and motivation?

Our “hybrid” training program builds on our standard two-day classroom course and includes 8-10 hours of personalized online training (with a dedicated coach) and three group webinars (totaling 5 hours). Additionally, optional training opportunities are available beyond the course.

Course Components:

1. Individual Speed Reading Online course with personal coaching (10 sessions, 45-60 minutes each)
• Complete flexibility: 10 sessions, 45 minutes each, to be completed over several weeks
• Guidance and support from an experienced coach
• Option to choose the course in German instead of English
  
  
2. Three group webinars on fixed dates (2 sessions of 2h, 1 session of 1h)
• Special insights on efficiently reading scientific texts, including memory and note-taking techniques
• Feedback on applying course techniques to your scientific reading
• Opportunity to submit your own scientific text examples
  
  
3. Voluntary training options beyond the course (free for all former participants)
• Access to an alumni website with all course tools, tests, and exercises (German & English)
• Refresher webinars (German & English)
• 12 short reminder emails over three months (German only)

Course Goals:

• Increase reading speed
• Improve text comprehension
• Master various reading techniques, strategies, and intensities
• Enhance concentration and motivation
• Learn specialized techniques for reading scientific texts

The course material includes a 60 pages text document covering all our advice on reading scientific texts more efficiently (German and English).

Please note that this online course requires a high level of self-discipline. To fully benefit, carefully follow the instructions and participate in at least the first and last webinar sessions. Only then can you expect a significant transformation in your reading habits.

This course is particularly challenging for non-native English speakers. Good to very good English reading proficiency (approximately B2 level) is expected, even for the English version of the Speed Reading Online course.
