It is expected that 80% of sixth graders in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) do not reach the minimum level of reading comprehension. The aim of this study is to analyze reading comprehension in education through a systematic review, using databases such as Dialnet, Scopus, Scielo, Reladyc and Google Scholar for the search; the descriptors used were Reading comprehension, Reading development, Reading levels, Importance of reading comprehension. As search results, 2,124 studies were found, detailed as follows: 380 in Scopus, 512 in Dialnet, 396 in Scielo, 410 in Redalyc and 426 in Google; then we proceeded to eliminate duplicate publications or those not directly related to the purpose of the study, leaving 24 sources to be analyzed after screening criteria. We concluded that reading comprehension is not simply an isolated skill, but a dynamic and multifaceted process that is influenced by various factors, among which the reader's previous knowledge and the pedagogical strategies employed by educators stand out.
