Introducing Alex Garcez0:28
Alex has been teaching speed reading for more than 8 years. He has trained thousands of professionals in Speed Reading and the majority double their reading speed.
As a young person he used to read slowly and was labeled dyslexic. His interest in learning only really developed once he learnt how to speed read at the age of 21.
He has a Bachelor Degree in Business with an MA in Marketing and Advertising. He is a Learning Difficulties Practitioner using the Raviv Method and he is also a practitioner in Neuro-Linguistic Programming.
His clients include professionals from companies such as:
Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Google, GE, Bloomberg, eBay, Wall Street Journal, The Walt Disney Company, KPMG, Ernst & Young, Home Office, Thomson Reuters, Adecco, Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Lloyds Bank, Citigroup, Sage, Bank of America, PwC, HSBC and O2.
I guarantee you'll improve by at least 33%2:25
You will understand that by using science to explain the process of reading faster you will be ready to experience it by yourself.

The conclusion is that your brain loves speed and that by reading faster you will understand more of what you read.
Assessing your reading speed8:34
Humans love measuring things.
Before starting a course you want to know how long it will take to finish it, we count the number of pages in a book, the memory of your computer in gigabytes and incredible things like the speed of light!
But what is your reading speed?
Almost nobody knows the answer to this fundamental question
Take a simple test and understand if you are a slow, average or fast reader.
Once you know where you are it's much easier to start improving.

The basic ideas5:06
Most people can hear their own voice inside their head while reading silently and they normally read at the same speed they talk.

To speed read you'll learn to silence this imaginary voice and will not be limited by the speed that you talk. You'll improve your reading speed without loss of comprehension.

You will understand that the Reticular Activating System (RAS) is part of our physical brain and is responsible for filtering reality. It also helps us to answer any questions we might have. By focusing on a problem we naturally start seeing more things that relate to that subject mater.

The RAS is also responsible for developing your focus while reading.
The Reticular Activating System13:53
Decide in advance what you want to learn from a book or text and you'll be more likely to find the meaningful points to you.
Avoid skipping back and improve 20%2:14
By understanding the RAS you'll develop more confidence and will develop your reading speed easily.
Brain Waves and your performance2:21
If you consciously avoid skipping back to re-read you will start altering your brain waves and your comprehension will improve automatically.

You'll be speed reading in about 3 minutes from now5:13
Understand how speed reading started as a concept to be able to have an experience of reading faster on screen without any training.
Speed read on the spot without any training6:28
In this short video you'll see images being flashed very quickly and after that I'll flash words at 350 and 500 words per minute and you'll understand the text.
This video will blow your mind!
You will be surprised to see that reading at 500 words per minute is easier than reading at 350 words per minute.

Your eyes jump around while reading5:31
Watch the eye tracker software in action and understand what happens with your eyes while reading.
Then find out that the first strategy to speed up your reading is to stop less times on each line of text.
The second strategy to speed up your reading is to make your eyes stop for less time every time they stop.
Understanding the Left and Right brain3:58
The left side of the brain is responsible for reading but if you understand the power of the right side of your brain you can start using it to speed up your reading in a very smooth way.

Get ready for the practice7:15
The practice starts now.
The metronome helps you play music at the right pace.
You will use the metronome to create a good rhythm to read.
Once you're comfortable with the metronome the comprehension will start to develop.
If you speed up your reading your comprehension will suffer at the beginning but keep the same pace and the comprehension will be enhanced automatically.
Synchronise your eyes with your pointer5:59
Resist the temptation of slowing down and your comprehension will improve.
As you practice your brain will quickly find the best strategies to improve your overall performance and will keep doing what works best.
You don't need to consciously know what's going on inside your mind. Just trust and the results will show themselves.
You'll start at 300 words per minute.
Don't worry if your initial reading speed was faster than 300 wpm because you are just warming up.
You'll be reading at 400 and 500 words per minute too.

Use your pointer and start reading now7:12
Pick up your book and start reading with your pointer as a guide.
You don't need to watch the video, just listen to the sound of the metronome and read.
This is just the awakening stage. There is more to come.
Overcoming mental blocks10:52
Understand that 100 % comprehension is not realistic and learn how to remember more of what you read by stopping and thinking about the message in the text.
Comparing your brain with a Ferrari and learn how to shift gears and become more flexible while reading.
Your perception will change and you'll get comfortable with rhythms that were challenging just moments before.
Your comprehension will improve even more12:02
Pick up your book and start reading with your pointer as a guide.
You don't need to watch the video, just listen to the sound of the metronome and read.

Alex Garcez discovered that your brain loves speed, and he thinks that fast is fun - slow is boring! If you think you have short attention span to read books, documents and social media, then you probably read slowly and carefully. Instead of understanding the text you get bored and distracted, needing to skip back to re-read text countless times. The main reason is that your brain is too powerful to go at such a slow pace and will drift off into something more interesting to think about.

Alex Garcez gave up his Engineering degree in the third year because he was a very slow reader, however, his weakness became his strength, after taking a speed reading course, and deciding he was not going to become a laborer but an entrepreneur. Since then he took a Business Degree, Masters in Marketing and Advertising, and developed the Revolution Speed Reading Method. He personally coached more than 3,600 people and more than 98.4% of his clients improved their reading performance by at least 33%. In fact most of his clients improve their reading speed by more than 100%.

With more than 9,257 clients taking this two hour course in 53 countries, Alex expects to motivate people to read more books. His method is based on science, and he has achieved amazing results while coaching professionals from companies such as: Goldman Sachs, GE, J P Morgan, Google, Bloomberg, eBay, The Wall Street Journal, Sage, The Walt Disney Company, KPMG, Ernst & Young, Thomson Reuters, Adecco, Lloyds Bank, Citigroup, PwC, HSBC and O2.

You will assess your reading speed at the beginning and throughout the course. So, if you spend 3 hours reading at work and improve your reading speed, on average, by 33%, you will save a whole month of work (24 days) every single year.
