    The current research is demanded to cover an examination accomplished with the following topic: “EASLE Educational Platform and Reading Skills” which investigates the relationship among both variables and how students’ understudies improve their reading subskills. Firstly, this research was coordinated using a mixed approach by conducting a pre-test and a post-test taken from the PET Reading section by Cambridge. The test evaluated the six main reading subskills skimming, scanning, inferring, predicting, deducing meaning from context, and intensive reading. The paired sample t-test statistics was implemented in this study to analyze quantitative data. Furthermore, Cronbach's alpha validation for the Web 3.0 diagnosis was considered to analyze qualitative data. Besides, the information from the Web 3.0 evaluation survey was categorized into a Likert scale. Secondly, online educational activities were applied to the subject's class by the primary collaboration of the "EASLE" educational platform to assess the mentioned reading subskills. For that reason, this research aimed to analyze the relationship between the "EASLE” educational platform and the development of reading subskills. Moreover, the participants of the study were 37 students of the second semester from “Pedagogía de los Idiomas Nacionales y Extranjeros” at Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Finally, the student’s average performance by using the "EASLE" improved from 13.84 to 26.76 points. Discerning the results, it can be concluded that the online activities of the "EASLE" educational platform improve reading skills, as was proved in the analysis of the students’ scores.
