Customer Reviews

Quickhand (Wiley Self-Teaching Guides)

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"

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

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.
