The barriers to increasing reading speed<ul><li>Regression: Going to the previous word to read it again. To stop it use a visual pacer. Underline the words that you read with your finger (in pc use your cursor.)</li><li>Subvocalization: The voice in your mind that speaks with you while you read. To stop this just count (1,2,3,4,5...) loudly while you read.</li><li>Word by Word Reading: Try to see a chunk of words at once and understand its means by a picture in your mind.</li></ul>Just practice more to increase your reading speed.

From official website: Jim was once known as the “boy with the broken brain.”A childhood head injury at age five left him struggling in school. For a while, he even believed he could never be as good as other kids when it came to learning.Jim loved superheroes as a kid – and comic books saved him when conventional education couldn’t. Comic books taught Jim how to read…and they also kept his dreams alive that one day he, too, would find his inner superpower. As the years wore on, fate led Jim to a mentor, a friend’s father, who sent him on a journey to learn about his brain and learn how to use it.
