Stretch: the complete speed reading software package that improves comprehension, vocabulary, spelling and memory; and the speed reading package based most extensively on methods recommended by peer-reviewed literature. Stretch extends the enormously successful flash-card technique from one word to two or more words to increase the size of clause that can be taken in at a glance. This not only improves reading speed, but because the user's basic information processing unit is expanded, the ability to understand is extended to allow more and more complex literature to be speed read with ease. Spelling and vocabulary are also drastically improved by the exercises which, using a total recall approach, require the user to type in the words flashed in their entirety and correctly spelt. Stretch comes with 35 texts covering an extensive range of topics. Stretch also offers the unique advantage of being the only software package on the market that offers methods for improving recognition or comprehension speed.
