Therefore, its general objective is to identify the portrait as a teaching resource for the development of writing skills in order to improve students' skills through its use. The study responds to a methodological design with a mixed approach (quantitative-qualitative). Because, prior and observable knowledge was considered through a survey and interview to then tabulate, interpret, analyze and relate it to the educational context. And qualitative, because non-numerical data is collected and analyzed to understand the concepts and opinions of the study subjects. Portraiture in the classroom offers students the opportunity to develop their descriptive and narrative skills through detailed observation and written expression.
