Fordham College of Liberal Studies has an Institute of Reading Development that may be of interest to many high school students. From their website: "Students in these programs double reading speed, improve comprehension, and learn a step-by-step approach to reading, studying, and taking notes in fiction and non-fiction. They also develop the ability to become fully absorbed in books, which makes reading enjoyable and supports the habit of reading for pleasure."Find out more:

Some classes in some locations are already booked; a few spots remain open. Class are usually in the evenings, and meet once a week in a workshop type setting, for two and a half hours for five weeks, starting in late June. Cost is around $335, which includes materials and tax and is an excellent price for something that will help with PSAT/SAT/ACT skills.
