Description:
Struggling to stay focused when reading? Wish you could engage more with books? Want to get top marks for your English language and literature exams? Or to be able to talk intelligently about the latest novels that everyone's raving about? This course will teach you the skills you need in order to become an expert reader, whether you are 14 years old or 40.Younger students who develop these skills will find themselves enjoying their English lessons more and will almost certainly achieve higher marks in school tests; adults who learn how to read more effectively from this course will find themselves wanting to fuel their reading habit and taking much more pleasure from sitting down with a good book. The well documented career benefits associated with being a strong reader (increased productivity, a stronger imagination, and a more successful career path) are yours for the taking if you develop these skills.In this course, you will learn how to read ACTIVELY. This is the key to becoming a better, more confident reader. Active reading involves going through a series of steps to engage more with any book you are reading. At each stage of the reading process, there is a series of questions you need to ask yourself about a book, whether it's predicting or summarising, getting the big ideas or analysing deeply. This course takes you through all the stages and organises the processes you need in simple and easy-to-understand steps. It's clear and concise: you'll love the way it's arranged to turn good reading into a simple matter of getting to grips with just a few key ideas.In the first section of the course, you will learn about why it's so important to be a strong reader and how to set up the habits for success. The targets you will set at this stage are designed to help you set clear reading goals and stick to them.Then, in Section Two, you will learn the Active Reading Cycle, a process you need to go through every time you read a new chapter of a book. The course dedicates ample time to each of the skills in the cycle: predicting, clarifying, questioning, and summarising. The questions you have to ask yourself to become adept at these skills are laid out clearly, and well-known stories are used as examples showing you how to go about each stage of the process.Once you have mastered this cycle, you're ready to move on to Section Three: the advanced Active Exploration Process. These videos show you how to think about a whole book, how to employ a simple method of understanding the big ideas and then analysing aspects of a text deeply in order to uncover profound meanings. Here, we use a poem by W.B. Yeats as our example text, and we use the Active Exploration Process to go deeply into its possible meanings.Although the texts used in this series are all works of fiction, and the style is directed primarily towards students from the ages of 11 to 18 (with the ideal age for the third section being 14 years and above), any adult who wishes to develop their reading skills will also find the skills here to be equally valuable to them, and will readily understand that the processes explored and the questioning methods introduced here can easily be used when reading non-fiction texts too.Far too many people think that they will become better readers by learning speed-reading skills or using a dictionary more often when they are reading but, in fact, these techniques are often counter-productive. Only by engaging with texts actively can you truly learn to love reading and become a master reader. When you buy this course, you are unlocking the door to the secrets of lifelong reading success.
Who this course is for:
This course is designed for anyone from the age of 11 years upwards, right through to adulthood, who can read sentences and paragraphs with reasonable accuracy and fluency but who struggles to maintain attention or stay engaged when reading. If you think you could be getting more out of the books you read but you don't know how, this course is for you.
