The study aims to analyze the reading habit in reading comprehension, for this, the benefits of reading habits were identified, the strategies applied by teachers to strengthen reading comprehension were determined and the level of reading comprehension of the students was evaluated. A mixed approach, exploratory, inductive, and analytical, was used as a methodology, with survey, observation, and interview techniques to collect data from high school students and the Language and Literature teacher. The results showed that the majority of students have no major interest in reading and have limited reading comprehension skills.
