In a simple definition, reading can be said as a process of understanding the written text by identifying words to become simple information or ideas, so as to make it easier for the reader to understand the meaning of the texts. This is also known as previewing when the reader flips quickly through a newspaper to see the main points of the day. It reads quite quickly with the immediate rejection of all irrelevant data, perhaps most of the text.
Silent reading tends to reinforce readers to find the meaning of the words. This speed reading skill should go hand in hand with the main purpose of reading which is comprehension. The rate of speed reading a story or story will be different from reading scientific material7.
The students were definitely able to read each of the words in that sentence and understand what they meant independently. Feldman defines "Speed reading is a collection of reading techniques that will allow them to at least double their reading speed on average compared to their reading speed before, and this technique should also maintain or even improve their reading comprehension"12. Speed reading is a technique for improving a reader's reading ability, improving both the speed with which text can be assimilated and the level of understanding of the material13.
Speed reading is one of the techniques that can be used to improve the reading habits of students to read quickly. Draw invisible shapes on a page of text to expand the visual space for speed reading. The disadvantage is that there is a sense of confusion or loss of understanding of what has been read, because students do not have or have not mastered reading skills using speed reading techniques, lack vocabulary and still read vocally.
Based on the framework of theories and assumption, the research formulates the hypothesis as follows: can use the speed reading technique to improve Students' reading comprehension at Tenth Graders of SMA Ma'arif 1 Seputih Banyak Central Lampung.
