I’m curious to know of any tips that might improve reading comprehension.

I’m currently in college and have been reading a lot more then I used to, but I believe I could improve my comprehension rate. I’d be most interested in any tips that will help me get through reading material which is not from a modern writer (i.e. Plato, Aristotle, Kant).

Any general reading/comprehension tips will also be greatly appreciated!

My speed is about average, but I would like to improve my reading comprehension. Courses like Evelyn Wood claim to improve both speed and comprehension. Can anyone speak from experience?

I am 25 years of age and am thinking about attending college to become a Registered Nurse. The only problem is that I am not very well educated at all. I have a 6 grade reading comprehension level. i really can’t understand much of what I read. i am not the smartest person at all. I have a learning disability and I want to overcome it soon. Based on what I told you about myself, do you really think that college is for a person like me?

its summer. im a junior. and i plan to take the SAT in the fall. I read a lot of books and gained a better vocabulary, but i don’t think it will help me improve my mind in the comprehension bit. and i tried to make my own questions as i read, but it never works – cuz i am too lazy or slow. its tough! i need like a teacher or something who will shout at me or something to keep moving on.
i need some sort of advice which will help me improve.
