Some students comment that
they read but things just do not seem to “stick.” If you want to try a method
for reading about reality when you need to be accurate, click this method for
reading FOR evidence. If you prefer a face to face meeting or a phone
conference, let me know.
I am not an expert, but I may be a person who has a similar problem to
yours. These tips worked for me. Some came from one of my community college
teachers.
WCJC was kind enough to send
me to a program for community college teachers who wanted to help community
college students succeed, including at reading. Parts of that program are very similar to what I was told years
ago by my community college teacher.
