The research aims to analyze the main factors that have affected the learning of the reading skill in the students of the group mentioned above, the benefits that music therapy has on the students and their education, and to inform on different methods to use in the class in order to provide effective learning strategies. The nature of the research is qualitative, so instruments were built and applied to collect information in the classroom. The techniques used in the Preparatory B class at Pan-American School were observation, in order to examine specific characteristics and behaviors in the students; survey, which was implemented to the homeroom teachers to generally analyze their knowledge in music therapy and its application in the class, and in this way compare and examine data; interview, in order to know in greater depth the trajectory of the homeroom teachers, the difficulties they have observed in the class in regard to the reading skill, and the connection they consider there may be between the use of music and teaching of the mentioned skill.
