Do you want to read significantly faster than you do today — with stronger comprehension, sharper focus, and the confidence to handle any reading material your studies or work demand?

• Do you lose focus while reading and find your mind drifting before the page is finished?
• Do you feel that your academic or professional growth depends on your ability to process more reading material, more efficiently?
• Do you spend more than an hour reading every day — and know that time could be cut to a fraction with the right system?
• Do you want a reading method that works across fiction, textbooks, reports, and work-related material — adapting to whatever you need to read most?

Whether you are a student facing an overwhelming reading load, a professional who needs to process more in less time, or someone who has always known their reading could be faster and sharper — this programme was built for you.

If you can say a genuine yes to any of these questions, this is where you start.

PROGRAMME INTRODUCTION:

Over 21 years of working as a private reading coach with more than 19,000 students — from secondary school pupils to university graduates, from office professionals to executives — I have developed a structured coaching system built around one simple principle: most people are reading at a fraction of their natural capacity, and a focused four-week programme is enough to change that permanently.

This is not a course you watch and forget. It is a live, 1-on-1 coaching programme, delivered through SRS Coaching hosted live sessions, tailored entirely to your starting point, your reading material, and your goals.

The average student who begins this programme is reading between 120 and 180 words per minute. Tripling that speed brings them to 360 to 540 words per minute — right at the threshold where reading begins to feel like flow rather than effort, and where focus and comprehension naturally improve rather than compete with speed.

Every session is built around where you are, not where a generic curriculum assumes you should be.

WHAT THE PROGRAMME COVERS:

Every tier of the SRS Coaching programme includes:

• Reading Speed and Eye Movement: We begin with the Core Speed Reading Exercise, taken step by step in your first session. Most clients see a measurable improvement in reading speed within the first exercise. The daily practice that follows builds that improvement into a permanent new reading speed — not a peak you have to strain to reach, but a new floor that becomes natural.
• Speed and Comprehension — Training the Two Together: Speed and comprehension are not opponents. They are two facets of the same skill, trained in a specific sequence for a specific reason. You will learn why reading at around 60 to 70 percent comprehension during speed exercises is not a compromise — it is how the brain builds durable reading fluency.
• The SRS Textbook Method: A combined previewing and active reading system designed specifically for academic journals, college & university textbooks, various other study material, and dense non-fiction. You will know the structure, key arguments, and critical passages of any chapter before you read it in full — saving time, improving retention, and making every study session more productive.
• The SRS Recall System: Retention is not about reading slowly. It is about capturing the right things at the right moment and reviewing them in the right sequence. The SRS Recall System gives you a practical note-making and recall architecture that keeps what you read accessible long after the session ends.
• Weekly Reading Comprehension Tests: Each tier includes weekly reading and comprehension tests to track your progress objectively, separate the felt sense of comprehension from the measured reality, and give you a clear picture of how your reading is developing week by week.
• The Reading Habits Self-Assessment: Before we begin, you complete a 20-question Reading Habits Self-Assessment — a structured questionnaire that surfaces the specific habits and patterns currently affecting your reading. This ensures that every session is calibrated to where you actually are.
• Study Skills, Time Management, Test-Taking, and Note-Taking: For students in secondary school, college, or university — or professionals pursuing further qualifications — the programme includes practical skill development across study habits, time management, test preparation, and note-taking while reading. These sessions are built around your specific academic demands.
• A Growing Resource Library: Throughout the programme you have access to a curated collection of reading guides and tip sheets — including 11 Simple Tips on How You Can Read a Lot More Novels and Fiction, 11 Simple Tips on How to Tackle Textbooks for College or University, and 11 Tips on How to Read Non-Fiction, Self-Help, Biographies, and Handbooks. Browse at will, use when relevant.
