You can also use an index card to cover words you’ve already read so you don’t keep reading the same thing over and over. To start speed reading even faster, try reading the text more quickly than you can actually understand them, which may eventually train your brain to process the words more quickly. Read on to learn tips for efficiently skimming through large portions of text!
