Assessors of Need

Assessors of Need can recommend Visual Reading Online

SFE Approved

Visual Reading Online has been approved by SFE when Assessors of Need have legitimate justification to recommend it. These include:

  • Slow reading speed
  • Poor comprehension, or recall
  • Difficulty decoding words
  • Difficulty recognising words
  • Difficulty tracking text
  • Visual Stress

Visual Reading handles all these issues.

Proven Results

In 5 weeks, students awarded Visual Reading Online through the DSA have improved their mean reading speed from 130 words per minute (wpm) to 438 wpm, while comprehension and recall improve, usually dramatically.

This is progress from the bottom 14% to the top 0.1% of postgraduate readers when reading for meaning.
