I summarize here some techniques/ resources I have learned about Speedreading/ how to read faster.
TED Talk - Jordan Harry
Tim Ferriss - How to Triple Your Reading Speed
Use a pacer/marker e.g. finger or pencil
- This avoids your eyes jumping and loosing the line
- This gives you a way to increase the speed of your eyes movement by following the pacer
Start/ end a bit after/before the margin
Using peripherical vision, you don't need to spend time on the blank margins/ you can save eyes movement

Faster reader have better comprehension because they have better focus.
Visual Pacer Technique: 40:38
Subvocalization 54:21
While saying the words you read in your head, you are limiting your reading speed to your talking speed but not your thinking speed.
