It is important that you see several words at a fixation. It is also important that your eyes leave a group. The numbers of letters or words that you see at a fixation are called your eye span .

With practice you can learn to read faster than you usually read.\nThe way in which you read always depends on what you are reading and for what purpose.

This method can be used when you wish to review something that you have forgotten.
