📖 What's the difference between Skimming vs Scanning?
These two words are found very often in the Reading Test.
But many people are still confused!
✨ 1️⃣ Skimming = Read Pamper Inclusion
Is "read through to capture the core."
✅ Use episodes to know what the overall content is talking about.
For example, when reading an article and wanting to know what the topic is,
Example:
Read the paragraph quickly to see if it talks about "tourism" or "environment."
Techniques:
• Read only the first and last sentence of the paragraph.
• Look for repeated words or words highlighted in the text.
🔍 2️⃣ Scanning = Read to "find something."
Read specifically - find "answers" or "specific information."
✅ to find out "what date," "which name," or "what number."
Example:
"When did the project start?"
👉 quickly sweep the words "started in..." or "began on..."
Techniques:
• Do not read every word
• Use the "scan" eye to find key words such as names, years, numbers.
When practicing English reading, try the same article, practice both ways -
1️⃣ Skim first to understand the big picture.
2️⃣ Scan later to find a specific answer.
📚 That's a lot faster to read!
