In this paper, we describe the effects of using Kit-Build concept map (KB-map) method as a supportive tool for the reading comprehension of English texts as EFL reading. Reading comprehension is the ability to read text, it is intentional, active, interactive process in all the stages of study for the students and in the daily working activities. One of the most common research points in this field is the English as Foreign Language (EFL) reading comprehension. We have conducted an experiment composed of six experimental reading comprehension sessions. We found that there is no significant difference in the comprehension between the two conditions groups just after the experimental using, but there is noticed difference in the comprehension two weeks after. It shows that the using of KB-map building helps learners to keep their information for long time, and we can say that the using of KB-Map help the students to use and recall, after two weeks, most of the information that are included in their student map.
