Different Types of Reading Strategies

There are multiple ways to read and memorize what you read. Elementary reading is the basic understanding of words on a page or following a simple plot, but it should also be self-directed. Inspirational reading involves skimming and scanning, but it is more effective for those who are already familiar with the topic. Analytical reading emphasizes reading even when you don't fully understand and taking notes to analyze the text. Cintopical reading involves reading multiple books on the same topic and comparing and contrasting their ideas.
