Effective Tips on how to improve reading comprehension in Adults?

Hi Guys,

I’m struggling with improving reading comprehension as an adult. Does anyone have effective strategies or resources they can recommend? I find myself getting lost in longer texts and missing key details. Any tips on how to enhance comprehension would be really helpful!

I teach English literature, debate, rhetoric, and analysis, so I’ve got a lot of ideas, tactics, and resources.
