Effective Speed Reading

Creator and course developer Evelyn Levson has personally instructed over five thousand individuals since 1992.  She has drawn her expertise from her years of experience, and from extensive research of numerous speed reading and speed learning textbooks and courses.   Insights gained through consultations with Howard Stephen Berg (the world's fastest reader at 25,000 words per minute), and Bruce Balmer (who holds a world record in speed learning), have contributed to the success of this speed reading course.  Evelyn was interviewed February 19, 1999 by Dave Kelly of the A Channel's Big Breakfast Show.
