1. Find something to read. Examples include a children's book, a newspaper article, a short story, or something on wikiHow.
2. Go to the library and pick up lots of books. Pick books depending on yourreading level, no matter what your age.Choose interesting and easily read books such as comic books, as well as reading books containing formal words. Reading is about enjoying the experience too
.
3
Find a place to read where you can concentrate. This may be someplace secret where no one will bother you, or simply your home at a time when it is quiet.
4
Schedule a routine time to read. Do this at least for the times you have nothing else to do, such as when you're on the bus. That way, a good book only entertains you but can also can help you learn to read faster.
5
Reread. If you don't understand what you are reading, read over the sentence(s) again. Try reading the words out loud to yourself. If you still don't understand something, ask a good reader nearby to explain the sentence(s) to you, or simply pick up a book that is easier to read and more appropriate to your reading level. Feel free to use your finger as a pointer. It will keep your eyes focused on the line you are reading, improving your understanding.
