Fast Readers are Happy Readers
I have yet to meet a fast reader who hated to read, but I have met countless children and adults alike who confess that they don't like to read because they are slow readers. If you also have seen that reluctant readers are slow readers, then perhaps you have already seen the need for a program to help your child learn to read with more speed. Even children who already read effortlessly can still improve their speed and increase their ability to absorb more material in a shorter amount of time.
Increasingly Higher Speeds
There are two things slow readers need to eliminate: the tendency to pronounce words in their mind while they read, and letting their eyes wander back so that they pointlessly re-read text. AceReader Elite deals with both issues. It will also expand their ability to take in a wider amount of text and do so at increasingly higher speeds.
Proficient Readers
AceReader is not designed to teach your child how to read, but instead focuses on helping him be more proficient at his reading. After taking a self-paced reading comprehension test to determine his base reading speed, your child will then work at reading drills and play skill-building games. Both tests and drills for grade levels one to twelve are included. Detailed records, program settings, and test results will be maintained in a separate database for multiple users. The program can even be customized if you would like to use your own drills and tests. In fact, if you choose to use the Comprehension Test Editor to create and edit your own comprehension tests or drills, you'll be delighted to know that AceReader Elite also includes a readability analysis tool to help you determine the grade level and complexity of text you have added.
Straightforward skill Practice
While AceReader Elite emphasizes straightforward skill practice, this latest version has added a number of nifty features. For the child looking for a challenge, AceReader Elite can be used to flash whole pages of text at desired speeds to develop PhotoReading techniques. Better yet, AceReader Elite can also be used as a memorization tool because it can repeat material over and over while gradually increasing the speed. Of course, you can input whatever you would like your children to memorize, but Scripture suits our fancy. Because we can change the fonts, colors, number of words or lines, and speed, we avoid much of the monotony of repetition and enhance memory by presenting different views of the same text.
In today's fast-paced information age, we're bombarded with e-mails, Web pages, textbooks, documents, and more. AceReader is referred to as reading improvement software, reading assessment software, online reader software, reading fluency software, vision training software, and speed reading software.
Help students of all ages and abilities excel, improving online and offline reading skills. Help individuals with disabilities and unique challenges, including those already reading proficiently, to read better.
