Keywords:
Learning Style, Learning Achievement, Auditory, Visual, KinestheticAbstract
The method used in this writing is descriptive; it describes the English Learning styles practiced by students. The research was conducted on the students of the State Senior High School (SMA N) 1 Rote Selatan - Indonesia. Therefore, this writing only presented the data relating to the fact or condition naturally without intervention or experimental manipulation from the writer. The subjects of this study are the students of the grade XII of science class. The instrument used to get the data is a questionnaire. The data analysis is based on descriptive analysis in which the data is tabulated and described in the form of words and sentences. This study indicated that both sciences classes used three learning styles for learning English: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. However, the percentages of these styles vary from one to another. The data by visual showed that the most frequencies style, the students used by auditory 39%, followed by visual 34%, and the least one is kinesthetic 27%. The discrepancy of teaching methods- with the needs of students - impacts learning outcomes, which shows that there is no attraction for students to learn because teachers often only focus on one approach to the sense of hearing, in this case, auditory. It makes students bored and considers learning more difficult.
