In this paper we try to assess whether there are differences in a group when their members try to remember the
content of a text, and if this fact affects the learning levels through an experimental methodology with a design
of two groups only with posttest to assess the readers’ free recall after reading a text. We found firstly
interindividual and intergroup differences in recall of textual material. And secondly text comprehension and
therefore the memory of the reading depend largely on reader's inferences. In this paper we propose a specific
intervention in order to prepare students for a better understanding of the text read, using a simple methodology
to apply with materials easy to prepare.
