not for me,
By A Customer
This review is from: Double Your Reading Speed in 10 Minutes (Audio CD)
This tape is exactly 10 minutes long with the same recording on both sides. All it says is, to sit up straight, hold your book up and scan the top of the words with several practice sessions. You decide if that is worth the money for this tape. I believe there is more informative tapes out there.

A cute little technique that worked for me !,

This review is from: Double Your Reading Speed in 10 Minutes (Audio CD)
You settle down with the cassette, a sample book and a pencilto measure your speed. You measure your reading speed once before'enlightenment', he then enlightens you with the technique, and you measure yourself again.For me - I really did double my speed, without having to do that finger-pointing thing! The whole tape really is just 10 mins long, which makes ...[it] seem a lot of money, but then the technique seems to work. Needs practice though, or you slip back to old ways... Probably worth a try if (like me) you lose patience with the long rambling speed reading books on the market.

The definitive word on speed reading!,
By Michael J Woznicki "Michael J Woznicki" (Holland, MA USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Double Your Reading Speed in 10 Minutes (Audio CD)
Want to try an experiment? Got ten minutes that may change the way you read forever? Then get a hold of the audio book that has helped me increase my reading and comprehension in just 10 minutes.I will admit I was very skeptical about trying anything that takes 10 minutes, however after listening to the tape and then practicing, I was amazed by the results. My reading has nearly double in 1 day. Follow Paul Scheele's easy three step method, which includes the "tangerine" method of relaxation and you'll see a marked improvement in reading skills in a matter of minutes - tem minutes! The cost of the audio book is under $20.00 and courses and seminars, which can only scratch the surface, will hundreds more. Couple this with another excellent book, Photoreading, by Paul Scheele, and you have made a very wise investment.

Totally useless,
By pavan gupta (Union city, Ca United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Double Your Reading Speed in 10 Minutes (Audio CD)
After going through the audio cassete, I can definitely say that I cannot double reading speed in 10 minutes. There is absolutely no logic and technique. It's just a waste of money. Please do not buy this book and suggest the author to do meaningful stuff.

Suckered...,
By Quy V Nguyen (Worcester, MA) - See all my reviews

What a scam! The more I concentrated on the so-called tangerine the more I regressed. If you want to double your frustration in 10 minutes, then I recommend this.

a really bad product,
This review is from: Double Your Reading Speed in 10 Minutes (Audio CD)
You think by doing the things he says on this 10 minute tape is going to change the way you read, well, you are gravely mistaken. Personally for me it did not work out at all, even after practing, I tried, I really tried, but to no evail. He's not quite a good teacher; and for all those who did find this tape usefull why haven't you written "how" it has changed the way you read, and not tell me what you did during the tape? I felt that the author wrote those good reviews. Very harsh acusations, i understand, but its just what I experienced.

More than Double!,
By Roger Mullins (Lexington, Kentucky, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Double Your Reading Speed in 10 Minutes (Audio CD)
OK; I'll admit I was a tad skeptical when I came across this item. Somewhere in the back of my mind, that old maxim about 'if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is' was trying to make itself heard. Fortunately, the part of my mind responsible for reading the three or more books per week for my graduate classes politely informed that maxim to shut up and I ordered it. I am utterly amazed; in the ten minutes I spent listening to the tape for the first time, right after it came out of the box, my reading speed went from 11 lines in 20 seconds (Mr. Scheele times you) to 24 lines in 20 seconds after he went over the technique. And that's on fairly complex historical theory, might I add. If I ever had time for pleasure reading, I could probably go faster than that. This little tape draws on powers you don't even realize your brain has, and the results are staggering. One last thing -- there's no noticable loss of comprehension, either. I realize that some people experience different results, just as I realized that when I ordered this item. But if you go at it with an open mind, you never know what your brain might accomplish. Try it!!!

If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is! This is such a waste of money, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR EVEN 10 MINUTES!!!
