With these techniques taught at the beginning of the activity, it was determined that the average word speed of the participants increased by 50-60 words in the readings that were tried during the activity. It has been emphasized that if the techniques are continued for 63 days, time management can be made more effective with lifelong speed reading with the development of eye muscles and the increase in perception level.
