Guide Your Eyes to Read Faster
Use visual tracking to improve speed and focus
Meta-guiding, also known as the pointer technique, involves using a visual guide (finger, pen, or cursor) to direct your eye movement while reading. This simple technique reduces regression, improves focus, and can increase reading speed by 25-50%. While LumaRead's RSVP eliminates the need for physical guiding, understanding this technique helps with traditional reading.

Frequently Asked Questions
Meta-guiding is using a visual guide (finger, pen, cursor) to direct your eye movement while reading, reducing regression and improving speed.
Yes, studies show meta-guiding can increase reading speed by 25-50% by reducing regression and maintaining consistent pace.
LumaRead's RSVP technology eliminates the need for meta-guiding by presenting words at a fixed position. However, learning meta-guiding improves your traditional reading skills.
