ABSTRACT
This descriptive study focuses on determining the students’ level of learning based on the three identified learning style categories and the relationship between the students’ learning styles and teachers’ teaching styles. It was found out that the students learned well from the teaching styles used by the teachers. No significant difference among the students’ learning styles when grouped according to program was shown. A substantial or marked relationship between the students’ learning styles and teachers’ teaching styles was likewise observed. As the study revealed that the students learned well from the teaching styles, the use of the combination of the three teaching style categories is highly recommended. Also, since the students’ learning styles across the three programs are the same, the program to which the students belong must not be given much consideration in choosing what teaching styles to use.
