    The present research, titled “Learning Styles and Reading Comprehension of Students in the Leveling Course and First Semester of the Early Childhood Education Program at the Technical University of Ambato”, aimed to determine the influence of learning styles on reading comprehension. A mixed-methods approach was applied, with descriptive, exploratory, and correlational levels. The sample consisted of 67 students, who were assessed using the VARK Questionnaire to identify their learning styles (independent variable) and the Cloze Test to evaluate their level of reading comprehension (dependent variable). The results showed a predominance of the kinesthetic learning style (55%), followed by auditory (30%), reading/writing (9%), and visual (6%). Regarding reading comprehension, 43% of students fell within the instructional level, 25% showed difficulties or a deficient performance, and only 19% achieved an excellent level. The statistical analysis using Kendall’s Tau-b coefficient revealed a positive and significant correlation between the two variables (τ = 0.183; p = 0.005), indicating that learning styles do influence reading comprehension performance.
