The use of virtual educational platforms has experienced a remarkable increase in the academic field, offering innovative tools that enhance the quality of teaching and the learning process. The objective of the research was to determine the influence of the use of the Moodle platform on the English reading comprehension of students in a higher education military school. The study was a basic, causal correlational, non-experimental, cross-sectional design. The population included 1.341 students from a military school in Lima, Peru, and the sample consisted of 300 students selected by random probability sampling. The results showed that the use of the Moodle platform has a regular performance (45.7%), while English reading comprehension is in process (39.7%). It was concluded that the use of the Moodle platform has a significant influence on English reading comprehension, being this influence high (Nagelkerke’s R2 = 0.808).
