Product Description
Quickhand Now you can teach yourself to write high-speed shorthand using just the letters of the alphabet! Quickhand is a new, easy-to-learn, easy-to-use, practical shorthand for business, school, or personal use. In just a few hours, you'll learn to write words as they sound. (No more months of study.) Quickhand is the only alphabetic shorthand based on scientific research into how English is actually used. So you need to learn brief forms of only 35 of the most used words---these make up 40 percent of all words in normal office usage! (No more memorizing hundreds of special symbols and abbreviations for seldom-used words, as in some systems.) With some abbreviations for the most common word endings and beginnings and special sounds, you'll know Quickhand. And you'll be able to write Quickhand quickly and easily---on the job, in school, in meetings, anywhere! Quickhand is one of the Wiley Self-Teaching Guides. It's been tested, rewritten, and retested until we're sure you can teach yourself shorthand on your own. And it's programmed---so you work at your own pace. No prerequisites are needed. Objectives and self-tests tell you how you're doing and allow you to skip ahead or find extra help if you need it. Frequent reviews, practice exercises, and a comprehensive exam reinforce what you learn.

 | Quickhand Jun 4, 2008 |
| I did not find this book or technique well thought out. Within the first chapter, I put this technique down in favor of a different, more intuitive technique. There were a couple of points that made sense but overall, not the technique for me. | | |  | Quickhand (Wiley Self-Teaching Guides) Jun 2, 2008 |
| This is an excellent product. I recommend it for students, business professionals, and anyone who need to take notes quickly without the rigid standards of Gregg Shorthand. It is easy and quick to learn and the retention is excellent. I use it daily, including taking phone messages. | | | | As good as the title "QUICK" Sep 16, 2007 |
| I purchase this book hoping it was simpler than the original shorthand. It is easier and quicker, no complicated new language for you to learn. As long as you practice daily and use it as often as you can it will come quickly and naturally. | | | | Very easy and practical guide to writing quickly & efficient Mar 15, 2000 |
| Very easy and practical guide to writing quickly & efficiently! I bought this book because I am tired of writing everything in longhand and I'm not a very fast typist. I am currently writing a book and am tired of getting hand cramps from so much writing. This book teaches a system of writing that is understandable & easy to learn. It has you write words the way they sound, and leaves out most of the vowels. Example: i wl cu u n - kr. Translation: I will see you in the car. I have heard bad reviews on how hard short hand is to learn because of all the symbols. Quickhand is a life saver! Buy the book. Even if you just use a few examples in writing it saves a lot of time and space when transcribing your ideas to paper. | | | Write your own review about Quickhand (Wiley Self-Teaching Guides)
