How to Summarise a Text in English - Improve English Comprehension

In this lesson, you can learn how to read and summarise a text.
Summarising a text is a vital skill for your English reading. If you can’t make a short, clear summary of the main ideas of a text, then you almost certainly haven’t understood it fully.
Understanding what you read in English isn’t just about the words; it’s about understanding the ideas, how they’re organised, and which ideas are more or less important.
Here, you’ll see some strategies you can use to improve your English reading, read faster, and improve your reading comprehension.
