It's very intuitive and so the learning curve is short. The author also shows you how to develop your own personal tricks. Review: Simple, Smart, and Surprisingly Effective - This book offers a practical and easy-to-learn alternative to traditional shorthand. Speed Writing Modern Shorthand breaks things down in a straightforward way, making it accessible even if you’ve never used any shorthand system before. The method is clean, intuitive, and works well for fast note-taking, dictation, or organizing thoughts during meetings and interviews. I was surprised by how quickly I picked it up, and even more surprised by how often I now use it. If you want a faster way to write without diving into old-school Gregg or Pitman, this is a great option. The only drawback for me is the price. At just 114 pages with advertising, and considering the age of this book, as well as the need to purchase a few companion books to make the set most useful, I think the price is a bit too high. But I wanted to learn and I still bought it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #837,140 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #342 in Business Writing Skills (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 85 Reviews | ## Images ![Speed Writing Modern Shorthand An Easy to Learn Note Taking System: Speedwriting a modern system to replace shorthand for faster note taking and dictation - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61eUIgSn5bL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An easier way to shorten note-taking *by D***A on February 20, 2025* If you don't want to spend the time that learning shorthand takes, speedwriting is a great alternative.
