Virtual platforms contribute significantly to the learning of the English language, facilitating teachers to develop the teaching-learning process. Through their use, dynamic tools are implemented which contribute to supporting students and facilitating their cognitive development, thus developing language skills. From this perspective, the present research work aimed to determine how e-learning contributes to the development of students' reading comprehension skills. In this research with a quali-quantitative approach and quasi-experimental type, a population of 70 seventh grade students from the Unidad Educativa Carlos Cisneros were part of the control and experimental groups respectively. For data collection, two techniques were used. The first was a survey directed to students which had a questionnaire as a tool. The second was a pre-test and post-test that were taken by the students before and after a classroom intervention where two virtual education platforms were used, Google Classroom and Kahoot. After data analysis, it was concluded that students significantly improved their reading comprehension skills, which constitutes a great advance in the learning of the English language for both students and teachers.
