How to Read any Text with Comprehension and Understanding
This lesson teaches you how to grasp the full meaning of what you read.
Description
We need to fully understand what we read in order to progress.
Not all texts are well written, so we need to be able to navigate through long winded, rambling, vague and complex texts.
During this lesson I teach you simple techniques that you can apply across languages.
The goal is to enable you to understand what has been written, to get the overall meaning of the text, to be able distinguish clearly between positive and negative intent, to then fully comprehend the exact meaning of the writer.
We are able to cover the whole spectrum of texts, from "Old English" Shakespearean type writing, to "American Legalese".
We will also address speed reading, how to extract meaning from a text in a limited time. This is not as difficult as it sounds, the skill revolves around the concept of summarizing.
