The objective of this research was to improve reading comprehension through scaffolding teaching strategies among students of eighth year “B” of Basic Education, afternoon session at Unidad Educativa Dr. Manuel Agustin Cabrera Lozano, in the city of Loja during the 2018-2019 school year. The scientific, descriptive, statistical and analytical-synthetic methods were adopted to gather, describe, process, analyze, and interpret the obtained results. Tests and questionnaires were the main instruments applied to collect data about a consistent group of 23 students. Similarly, observation sheets and field notes were used to record the students’ progress and attitudes. The results indicated that scaffolding teaching strategies improved satisfactorily students' reading comprehension skills; these are: word meaning, skimming, scanning, and prediction from text. Scaffolding teaching strategies enabled students to be more responsible for their learning and be positively involved in it, be aware of their progress, be active and motivated participants, and to build self-confidence.
