Aligning Classroom English Learning Models with Students’ Learning Styles (VAK): A Qualitative Study in Secondary Education

Abstract

The learning model is a systematic approach in delivering subject matter to suit the characteristics and needs of students. The selection of a learning model in a subject is also based on the adjustment of students' learning styles, namely VAK (visual, audiotory, kinesthetic) in terms of adjustments carried out practically and contextually. Extracurricular learning allows students to develop learning strategies that fit their learning style. Students who recognize their learning styles tend to have better control over their learning process and show improved learning outcomes. This research was conducted by MTS AL-Irsyad using a qualitative approach and two informants, namely a teacher and a student.Learning will be more effective if teachers are able to adapt observation-based methods to students' learning styles. These adjustments encourage students to develop self-study strategies that improve reading and writing skills. that the application of appropriate learning styles not only contributes to the improvement of oral comprehension, but also plays a role in developing students' reading and writing skills gradually.
