Thank you to everyone, I will try moving my fingers faster over the words or keeping them about an inch beyond what I am reading. I now have the course and I'm on tape 3 but when I was doing the exercise I didn't get any of them right.. The dictionary, got zero correct, and the reading or super reading and dipping I couldn't tell you what I read to save my life.. Oh well, I know if this does not work for me I can send this back. My brain simply may not be geared for this, I'm dyslexic so there may not be anything that will be able to help me. I won't give up yet.
