How POWER READING for Athletes works

Power Reading is a 4-week program with 2 hour weekly sessions taught in small classes by certified facilitators. The students are introduced to reading and learning techniques that will develop comprehension, save time, and improve school or work performance. The skills developed are effective for all academic courses and post-academic life.

The students begin by assessing their reading capabilities. They are introduced to the Power Pacer™ and the Power Tach™, advanced learning tools that exercise and train the student's eyes to recognize and process words at a much higher speed.

In the second and subsequent sessions a memory technique called memory mapping is introduced and mastered. This technique improves the student's study skills, efficiency, and the ability to remember important information. Each session is fun and challenging for the students.
