Free Speed Reading Workshop Friday, October 2, 2009
Posted by Abhinav Rohatgi in : Announcements, Meetings , comments closed
Do you wish you could read for pleasure, but think you’re too busy?
Do you know you should be reading your textbook, but don’t have the time?
Do you want to score better on the reading comprehension part of that standardized test?
At the clinic you will learn how fast you learn, how to read faster, and be taught how to improve your reading comprehension skills. The workshop will be informal and relaxed, but useful and educational as well!
Please register for the class using the following link:

The workshop sponsored by Draper is the first one listed.
