I can read. Why do I
need reading services?
College reading is very different from the academic reading you’ve done in the past. In
college, you will be spending about 80% of your study time reading texts, journal articles, and more. You’ll also be dealing with an increased study workload, and you’ll need
to learn strategies for keeping up with the readings that are assigned to you. Becoming
an active, critical reader will help you to make the most of your study time and will help
you to be successful!

Often when I read a page of text, I have no
idea what I have read when I finish. Does
this indicate a problem with reading?
I can study for hours, and
it seems to have no effect.
Can my reading skills
No! The brain is a powerful instrument that can process information much more
quickly than we can read and decode words on a page. By using pre-reading and other active reading strategies, we can harness more of the brain’s power and improve
memory, recall, and critical thinking. The CTLE Reading Specialist can show you how
to personalize your reading so that you are making the most of everything you read.
Let’s discuss your current study strategies to fully understand why you’re struggling.
Students need to use active study and reading techniques in order to be effective.
Effective study requires planning, questioning, time management, and self-monitoring.
