Self-Dictation Speedbuilding Sheets

    Self-dictation sheets are used to build speed without the aid of a dictator or of shorthand speed tapes.  They are self-paced allowing for the out-of-practice writer or the pro to pause as necessary to check an outline.  Of course, the self-dictation sheet may be copied or reprinted and used as often as necessary to building confidence and shorthand speed.

    A sample of a speedbuilding sheet appears to the right.  You write your shorthand directly on the sheet itself, over the printed words.  The self-dictation material is provided as a Word document; pages can be printed as desired and they can be printed as often as necessary.  Full instructions are given on the first page of the document.

    This self-dictation file is currently being offered FREE OF CHARGE if you'll just write to me with an e-mail address.  The download takes about a minute with a 56K modem.  Basic Course in Pitman Shorthand, 1946, was the text transcribed for these self-dictation sheets.  Of course, writers of other systems can still benefit from this material!  There are 50 lessons in all and the material is graded.  In other words, the vocabulary builds.  Give them a try and see what you think.
