mmm...i don't know how i story start.
am i photoreader? i think i am photoreader. but sometimes i worried about this problem.
am i really photoreader?
there are many photoreader in korea. but there are no result to photoreading.
many people learn photoreading for prepare exam.for example university test(like a SAT). many people said "i use photoreading very hard. but my score is same before. is photoreading really useful skill?"
i always answer "yes, photoreading is very useful skill. try hard more and your score is higher"
but i think "truth, i don't know" i photoread many books and i think i am photoreader but when i use this in studing time i feel confusion.
i knew photoreading when i preparing university exam. i read photoreading book and think " wow it's amazing learning skill. i will use this skill to go to good univ." i use very hard but my score is same.
i think confusion "why score is same? am i really photoreader?" but i photoread many books so i'm used to photoreading.
many photoreader in korea worries this problem. people photoread normal text is very well but in learning state people feel difficults. what was wrong? and what is wrong?
i don't understand this problem.

Maybe photoreading is a placebo.

and i think so.

Believe it's complex and it will be complex.

How many books have you activated till they gelled?

'gelled' as in "come-together" or "solidified".

P.S. Think of making Jello. :-)

Mr.Viefhaus!my photoreading mentor jung-yong-hyun(master of acupuncture), me and my photoreading friend sun-yung meet weeks ago, together photoread their own book and share discussion. this meeting started 1 year's ago. so at least i photoread 1 book in a week.AND why don't you answer my first discussion?

Why do you ask us if you are a PhotoReader. You would know if you are or are not.

A PhotoReader knows if they want more out of a book theywill spend more time with it.

A PhotoReader also knows that textbooks require more time. If you spend 75 hours with a textbook with normal reading, then you can expect to spend 15 hours with PhotoReading.

Anxiety will always undermine a student.
