ABSTRACT: Students have their own ways of how they prefer to learn or understand things. Because of this, there is what we call a learning style. This is because students have different effective ways of learning. They may learn better through their sense of sight (visual learners), hearing (auditory learners), reading and writing (read and write learners), and movement (kinesthetic learners). This study aims to explore how often students of the Bachelor of Secondary Education major in Filipino at the Western Mindanao State University use different learning styles based on their academic performance. A descriptive quantitative research design was used to gather data from sixty (60) participants in the study. This study focused on the frequency of use of learning styles and whether there is a significant difference in the use of learning styles based on gender and academic performance. The results of this research show that the most frequently used learning styles by students based on their academic performance are Visual and Auditory. They sometimes use the Kinesthetic learning style. Meanwhile, male students often use the Auditory learning style, while female students tend to use the Visual learning style more. The outcome of this research indicates that there is no significant difference between students’ learning styles and their academic performance, and there is also no significant difference between students’ gender and their learning styles.
