Resumo

The present work aims to present the results of the generalization of a methodology for the preparation of university students in reading comprehension in English at the Universidad de Granma, applied for the first time in 2022. Through the generalization of the methodology in various careers, the students were able to obtain and demonstrate the communicative skills that express their ability to understand texts written in English at an A2 level. They were also able to use English as an instrument for academic, employment and research in their respective careers, in such a way that it allowed them to solve problems and situations from their specific educational contexts. In addition, the levels of development of skills for the search and management of information from different sources increased, as well as communication skills that contribute to their efficient academic training and as future professionals. Furthermore, the teachers involved contributed to the transformation of traditional didactic approaches in the teaching-learning process of reading comprehension in English, as well as to a dynamization of the process to satisfy the needs and interests of the students. These transformations contributed to achieving a notable increase in the quality and promotion of the results obtained in the English proficiency test carried out in December 2022, which allows us to sustain that it contributes to the improvement of the process under investigation, according to current educational policies.
