Schulte Table
Find numbers in order
Tap numbers from 1 to N as fast as you can. Trains peripheral vision and focus.

The grid trains soft, wide-aperture vision: holding center while finding numbers in your periphery directly expands your useful field of view. A wider field means fewer eye fixations per line — the foundation skill behind every speed-reading technique.
How to do it
A grid of shuffled numbers appears. Tap them in ascending order, starting from 1, as fast as you can; try to keep your gaze near the centre. The run is timed, wrong taps are counted and your best time for each grid size is saved.
- What it trains:
- Visual search and awareness of what lies around the point you are looking at.
- Options:
- Grid size: 3×3, 4×4 or 5×5.
- Suggested time:
- One to two minutes (two or three grids).
Like every Tachi drill, this is structured practice: you get better at the drill task itself, while evidence that such exercises carry over to everyday reading speed is weak. See what to expect, honestly.
