Comprehension Training System

Do you understand everything you read? Do you find yourself reading to the end of a paragraph, then you look up and have no idea what you just read? The problem is your comprehension.

WARNING:

According to The National Adult Literacy Survey, National Center for Education Statistics: Nearly 50% of the Americans surveyed cannot read well enough to find a single piece of information in a short publication, nor can they make low level inferences based on what they read

According to a report in the Journal of American Medicine, Emory University/UCLA study, reported in JAMA, 12-95, 41.6% of American patients could not comprehend directions for taking medication on an empty stomach. Another 26% were unable to understand information explaining when their next appointment was scheduled, and 50.5% could not understand a standard medical consent form.

According to ACT(The independent, not-for-profit organization American College Tests, Iowa, 2005), Only Half of ACT Test-Takers Have College-Ready Reading Comprehension Skills and they go on to say:

"Reading skills are critical to a student's success in college courses across the board, but particularly in the areas of social sciences and humanities. First-year college students who don't have adequate reading comprehension skills are likely to struggle in courses such as history, sociology, literature, business and others that require extensive reading.

About half of ACT-tested 2005 high school graduates lack at least some of these reading comprehension skills, based on ACT's new College Readiness Benchmark in reading. ACT College Readiness Benchmarks are scores that indicate a student has a high probability of success (with "success" defined by ACT as earning a "C" grade or higher) in specific entry-level college courses."

Many people do not even realize they have poor comprehension. They assume everyone reads the same as they do, or they read in a mechanical way that prevents them from retaining any information. Maybe you can read, but you do not remember hardly anything and you do not know what is causing the problem. If you read and do not understand, this video program will reveal new methods you can use to truly understand what you read, without the confusion, without re-reading, without the frustration.

Many schools once had a belief that you Got-It or you didn't when it came to comprehension. We now know that to be false. Comprehension can be taught. Unfortunately many people were never given the tools they needed to read properly. They do not know the fun and excitement of reading a novel because they were never shown how they could understand what they are reading.

A man sits in a fast food restaurant, eating his burger as he listens to the group in the booth behind him excitedly discussing a book they have all read. The man is confused. How can anyone be excited about reading a book? How can it be so much fun? When the man reads, he only experiences stress and frustration, not fun and enjoyment. He associates reading with feelings of inadequacy, feelings of stupidity, fear that he may be asked to read something for school or work, and embarrassment if he has to read in front of others. He is an intelligent person but he still does not read well. He cannot remember more than a few words when he has finished reading a page. Stories make no sense to him. He is missing a huge part of life because he does not know the right way to read. He learned to read in a mechanical way that processes the words and nothing more. He never learned the secret to reading comprehension and this leaves him shut out of not only a world of reading enjoyment, but employment opportunities, education opportunities, and sharing experiences with others who have good comprehension.

Tests and exams become a nightmare for those who have poor reading comprehension. A smart student can never be successful in school or at any job(other than ditch digger) if they cannot comprehend and understand questions on an exam. You and your children must have the skills and strategies needed to truly understand what you read.

You may understand some of what you read but that is never enough. Only understanding half of a news story, half of a business report, half of a book, can easily mislead you into thinking something is true which is in fact false, or if you only understand half of a business report, you may make a suggestion to your boss that is completely wrong. If you only understand half of a book, it will make little sense to you. You must improve your comprehension or you are putting yourself at a disadvantage throughout life.

Strategies to improve your comprehension DO exist.
