Guide to Reading Skills

Reading is Necessary To be Successful in College

(and Sometimes Challenging)

 

Reading in the college setting is different than the type of reading with which most of us are comfortable.  The materials you are assigned to read are one of the ways you learn and what most tests will be based on.
This guide will show you how 
  • to read smarter not harder
  • to manage your time efficiently to get the readings completed 
  • to read material and retain the information. 
The skills and strategies you learn today will carry over to all your classes and increase your success in college. 
If you have a reading disability, talk with your Success Coach about an accommodation. 

Reading is a skill that improves each time you read.
