Speed Reading Course

Speed Reading in Washington DC?

Hello,

It’s pretty hard to find speed reading courses nowadays, but here’s one company that apparently teaches speed reading in Washington D.C. Here’s their schedule: http://www.irisreading.com/washington-dc/

Eveylyn Wood, who famously taught President John F. Kennedy to speed read, used to have a program called Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics. Her classes were taught across the country until she passed away around 1990. Since then speed reading kinda fizzled away and most of the stuff out there is speed reading software or online programs. It’s probably easier to learn in a classroom environment.

Hope that helps

Washington, D.C., Past and Present $9.48 With 127 pairs of matching photographs, "Washington, D.C., Past and Present" takes the reader on a journey through time. Author and photographer Peter R. Penczer has selected 127 fine vintage photographs of Washington, D.C., and the Virginia and Maryland suburbs and has rephotographed each site from exactly the same vantage point.

On every page, then and now photographs appear side-by-side. A photograph of workers putting the finishing touches on the Tivoli Theater in 1923 is shown alongside the Tivoli today, a magnificent ruin. Where a row of houses stood in Southwest Washington in the 1950s we now see the Southwest Freeway. The Virginia and Maryland suburbs are covered here as well. Early photographs of Clarendon, Falls Church, Alexandria, Fairfax, Herndon, Chevy Chase, Rockville, Hyattsville, and many other localities appear alongside recent photographs of exactly the same view. Accompanying the 254 then and now photographs are 127 lucid, thoroughly researched captions describing the forces that have transformed Washington, D.C., and the metropolitan area. "Washington, D.C., Past and Present" is fascinating reading for anyone interested in Washington, metropolis and capital city, and its environs.
