  • Resumen: In Chile there has been a common challenge circling around language teachers which was the improvement of the reading skills in language learners. It has been hard to guide a significant reading comprehension in students’ mother tongue and even more so when it comes to teaching and practicing reading in a foreign language as shown in the results of the English SIMCE test taken in Chile. Regarding an optimized way for the acquisition of vocabulary and to be able to understand reading texts, 11th grade students of San Fernando high school were faced with different receptive teaching strategies where the first 1000 high frequency words were presented, which make up 70% of the great majority of texts.
