Thank you for taking the time to use the Soundway Reading Speed Grader. As promised, here is the personalized Soundway Reading Speed Profile containing a detailed evaluation of your child or ward’s test score.

WHAT YOUR CHILD’S READING SPEED INDICATES

Based on your child’s test results, the average rate of reading is 0 Words Per Minute (WPM).This score ranks your child as a Speed Reader. What this score means is that your child reads at a rate that is higher than that of most readers. You may find that your child:

  • Almost always completes assignments on time.
  • Sometimes struggles to finish reading long, dense nonfiction texts.
  • Enjoys reading for pleasure.
  • Often finishes classroom work or reading texts before other students.

Your child is doing very well, however there is still lots of room to improve. Effective reading is an essential part of successful schooling from the elementary level through to the post-graduate level. Almost all assignments, examinations, class discussions and presentations involve reading. Naturally, the ability to speed read ranks high on the list of valuable life skills even among top executives. Developing your child’s speed reading abilities early in life will allow the benefits of the skill to be maximized.  Research has shown that these literacy skills can be taught and learned quickly. Your child too can enjoy the benefits of sharpening this must-have 21st century skill.
