Do the speed reading techniques apply to children? At what age should they start?
Start speed reading techniques aged 15+: The speed reading approaches and techniques that we recommend are designed for adults. We recommend that young people start using the techniques after they’ve had some experience of reading conventionally and when they need to be more efficient. This is probably aged about 15+, at a time when they need to read more for study purposes rather than (or as well as) for pleasure.
