ABOUT OUR COURSE
About The Shilin Speed Reading Course
The Shilin Speed Reading Programme is an in-depth and comprehensive speed reading course delivered over a three-week period and is presented live by a course facilitator.
The course is composed of a set of mental development exercises designed to awaken the higher processing capabilities of the human brain and mind. It consists of unique exercises and follows a unique methodology that is different to any other speed reading course that has been available worldwide.
We focus on developing your natural reading capabilities by “physically” training your brain to firstly “absorb” more information at a time and secondly to enhance your natural processing capabilities while maintaining full comprehension of what you read.
What is Speed Reading?
Speed reading as a topic is a relatively new, slightly controversial and HIGHLY misunderstood and misrepresented subject and field of study.
First popularised by Evelyn Wood in the 1960s and ’70s, speed reading courses were offered as a means for students and professionals to read and learn faster. However, after growing her school to over 32 cities across the United States, the business and its popularity began to decline in the 1980s.
In spite of its benefits, speed reading is practiced by a tiny proportion of humanity. We believe partly because of unscrupulous business practices, but mainly because of incomplete training philosophies and a misunderstanding of how speed reading really works,
Our Definition of Speed Reading
We define Speed Reading as the ability to extract a greater amount of information, from a greater amount of text in a shorter period of time.
In other words, speed reading is the ability to read a journal article, book or report in less time – WITH COMPREHENSION!
By unlocking the ability to read faster an individual will be able to complete a book, course or even a degree in a shorter amount of time.
About the Shilin Speed Reading ProgramME
The Shilin Speed Reading Programme is a theoretical framework and practical training process that is structured and designed to unlock the higher reading and learning faculties of the brain and mind.
Completing the course will allow you to perceive, read and absorb more information in a shorter period of time. Allowing you to read multiple words or sentences in the same time an average person reads a single word. Saving you time and energy that can be used for higher level of personal and professional development, time for your family or for alternative levels of work-life balance.
It is a one-of-a-kind training philosophy, process and methodology that is unique to our course and company.
How it Works
The course is presented live, by a trained course facilitator who will guide you through a set of training exercises designed to train your brain to read multiple words, sentences or even paragraphs of text in a shorter period of time.
We do this using a combination of reading theory and practical exercises that trains you to read from the higher information processing faculties of your brain.
We unlock the ability to speed read by addressing the subject on many levels, namely: on a psychological, neurological and physiological level.
The course is delivered either online via webinar or in-person, and in group training sessions with each participant receiving guidance, coaching and facilitation at an individual level.
It is delivered over an extended period of time to ensure that you understand, practice, apply and integrate the Shilin Speed Reading philosophy and methodology into your personal and professional lives.

Speed Reading for Kids and Students
The majority of our clients are professionals and executives who need to read and learn faster because of the demands of their jobs and work environments.
However, the Shilin Speed Reading Programme is also highly effective and beneficial to younger students and scholars.
The Shilin Speed Reading student and scholar courses are age specific courses offered only to students between the ages of 11-and-23 years of age.
Our younger clients tend to achieve even greater results than their adult counterparts, partly due to the greater plasticity of their brains, but mainly because they have spent less time reading with the bad habits we are taught in school.
Currently the student and scholar courses are offered twice a year in South Africa during the school holidays.
Why the variations between the course structures and why is it important?
In all areas of life, the greater the amount of time and energy you focus on a subject or art, the more proficient you become at it.
The different course formats are designed for different needs and requirements of different people.
Learning how to read faster is not a quick fix and requires time, energy, concentration and focus.
