English learning is crucial as it often presents challenges due to its diverse
skill requirements, and recognizing students' learning preferences helps educators
develop effective strategies. The study focuses on three main types of learning
styles: auditory, visual, and kinesthetic, which are often overlooked in
conventional classroom settings. These variations in learning preferences
necessitate teachers to adapt their methods to ensure an inclusive learning
environment.
Based on the the study addresses the following research questions: (1)
What are the auditory learning styles among students in Class ten Bina Insan
Cendikia (BIC) of MAN 1 Jember? (2) What are the visual learning styles among
students in Class ten Bina Insan Cendikia (BIC) of MAN 1 Jember? (3) What are
the kinesthetic learning styles among students in Class ten Bina Insan Cendikia
(BIC) of MAN 1 Jember? Additionally, this research aims to describe the
influence of each learning style on students' English learning processes and to
provide insights that help educators develop more effective teaching strategies
tailored to these styles.
This research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative
and quantitative methods to provide a comprehensive understanding of students‘
learning styles and preferences. Data collection techniques included
questionnaires distributed to students, semi-structured interviews conducted with
their English teacher, and detailed classroom observations. This methodological
triangulation was adopted to ensure the validity and reliability of the findings, as
well as to capture a nuanced perspective of the learning dynamics within the class.
The findings revealed that auditory learning styles were the most dominant
among students, Auditory with 41,54% of the total responses. Visual learning
styles followed closely at 33,85%, while kinesthetic learning styles were observed
in 31,45% of the students. These findings highlight the importance of adopting
multimodal teaching strategies that incorporate auditory, visual, and kinesthetic
elements to accommodate diverse learning preferences effectively. Such strategies
not only enhance students' understanding and engagement in learning English but
also foster a more inclusive and supportive educational environment tailored to
their individual need
