Frequently asked questions

Can Acceleread help me read English faster?
Yes. Acceleread trains the habits that slow ESL readers most — heavy subvocalization and constant re-reading — with short guided drills you can do in English.
Should I still look up words I don’t know?
Look up words that block meaning, but try to guess from context first. Constant lookups break your flow; building vocabulary over time is more effective.
