A reading speed calculator estimates how long it will take to read a text based on your words-per-minute (WPM) reading rate. The average adult reads at 200–300 WPM; trained speed readers can achieve 1,000–1,500 WPM with reduced comprehension.

Stapsgewijze handleiding

2. 2Enter your reading speed in words per minute (test yourself: time how long to read 500 words)
3. 3Reading time = Word count / WPM
