■いる♪ 

いる attaches to -te form. it is progressive. it means some one IS doING something.

A:志穂さんが何をしている? 
B:食べているんですよ。 

A:what are you doing?
B:i am eating

often shorten to just る (読んでる) and t る can be shortening to ん when it has particle or anything after it. 読んでます is neutral between polite and friendly
