Publisher's Summary

Do you read the same page over and over without realizing it? Do you need a tool to understand a lot of complex text in a short amount of time? Introducing the STOP reading method; a powerful tool that helps you save time so that you can focus on what's really important: understanding your reading. The STOP reading method incorporates four of the most powerful strategies available to help readers, even with lower ability levels. 

With STOP, you will learn techniques for scanning and predicting, critical questioning, selective reading and summarizing most effectively. You can connect new information to what you already know, learn how to make predictions that help to guide your reading, and to read and write more selectively. 

The STOP reading method takes advantage of the most recent evidence-based strategies for increasing reading comprehension, which supports reading for deeper understanding of complex material, even for non-readers. Get the audiobook now and try it out. If you are a teacher or parent of a student who is affected by forms of attention deficits, dyslexia, or just looking to increase learning, this audiobook is also for you. 

Author Bio: Dr. Rick Smith spent nearly two decades at the head of classrooms supporting students with special needs to improve their learning and develop stronger emotional resilience. He is a pioneer and expert in the field of Emotion Focused Teaching (EmotionFocusedTeaching.com), an instructional method that effectively equips teachers and parents to meet the student’s emotional and intellectual needs. Dr. Smith has trained more than 1,000 teachers and parents on three continents in settings ranging from elite international schools and inner-city public schools to educational organizations, such as the Education Bureau of Hong Kong. Starting out as a frustrated learner himself, Dr. Smith overcame his challenges to achieve honors degrees for his Bachelors, Masters (MEd) and Doctorate of Education (EdD).
