Paul Hobbs was interviewed on national television in Dubai and Bahrain with follow up interviews on local radio. In addition to talking about his Quantum Reading programmes he was also asked about the courses he runs on study skills. At a subsequent, live, 'phone in' a number of mature students quizzed Hobbs on techniques related to distance learning with one listener inviting him to travel to Dubai for some one to one coaching.
In October BBC Radio Scotland ran a Brainweek feature with Tony Buzan holding the fort as the resident expert. During the week others well known in the field of 'thinking' and learning were interviewed alongside Buzan. Paul Hobbs was invited to contribute to the feature on Speed Reading and in particular its application when reading for academic learning. Hobbs was able to report on how his techniques gave benefits in both reduced reading time and improved comprehension.
