I see many people who come here asking if they will be able to learn photoreading for an upcoming exam, expecting it to be some sort of magic bullet. To me that is disappointing, as it completely negates the playful style of learning the system. However these people can still be successful with it if they keep a positive and relaxed attitude.
In any case I'm curious as to everyone's different reasons for investing the time and money into photoreading. For me it was because my 11th grade english class required a lot more reading than I was used to and I wanted an easy way out, so I bought the PR book. The system helped remarkably when I chose to apply it. What about you guys?
