Fast Track to Reading: Accelerated Learning for EFL & ESOL Students Fast Track to Reading is an accelerated reading programme designed for adult learners of English who are not readily able to read the Roman alphabet. It can be used for students who cannot read at all & for students who cannot cope with reading at speed. It is designed for adult learners of English who already have a concept of reading: those who can read & write in a linear phonetic language such as Arabic or Farsi & those who are conversant with pictographic languages such as Mandarin or Cantonese. However it can also be used with students who have yet to gain a concept of reading. Fast Track to Reading can be used before starting a course where reading is an integral element or as a reading element in parallel with a simple starter-level course. In mixed ability classes where only some students are unfamiliar with the English alphabet the programme can be used for self-study outside class.
