Need A Bit Of Help...!
Where should I go to, to view information, and to look up information on why people read better, or worse than others? Thanks everyone for your help!

Hello,
Reading is closely tied with thinking. There are techniques which could enable people to read better than others e.g. reading with a question in mind, discerning the implicit structure of expository text, and teaching oneself to keep eyes moving forward, not back, over a text (see http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/199 ... terth.html).
Here is another interesting article on reading and phonics instruction:

Hi,
Learning disabilites often affect how a person reads and understands material. For instance, dyslexia causes people to invert words and letters, making reading and writing difficult
