That is a change that is making basketball a better game, I think because there are now more coaches there to come the teaching of sounder fundamentals and players are now away from the ball much more effectively.

what has reading dynamics done for you?
CAROL LEEK
"With the reading dynamic techniques I acquired, I now know how to study, to pick out important things to remember, and to do all this seven times faster."
**DENNIS BOSLEY**
"It works. If you can discipline yourself to read dynamically, to study and pay good attention everything else you do, a whole new world of adventure will open up. It will work if you work out a plan."
MIKE MORRILL
"The study and thinking organization was very helpful. You do not have to use a single method but can fit technique to material."
TOMAN VORN NORN
"Now that I have learned to read, I can read much more than the same amount of time. I can read a book in about 30 minutes."
ROBERTGWIN
"The course helps make one aware of his reading and recall potential. At the end of the course you learn that you have learned and disafflicted because you didn't do better."
MARK PIERCE
"I found the recall guides for study and finger patterns for speed, the most beneficial aspect of the course."
**KORB MAXWELL**
"My main benefits from this course are my ability to read at greater rates plus my ability to be better and more comprehensive notes in class."
