How many times have you promised yourself to read more but just never found enough time?
If only you could do it quickly and more efficiently.

Effective and efficient readers learn to use many styles of reading for different purposes which include skimming, scanning, and critical reading. Before reading, you need to identify the purpose why you’ll be doing such activity: Are you looking for background information on a topic you know a little bit about already? Are you looking for specific details and facts that you can marshal in support of an argument? Are you trying to see how an author approaches her topic rhetorically?

Knowing your purpose in reading helps focus your attention on important aspects of the text. Before turning those pages, take a moment first to reflect and clarify what your goal really is.
