      abstract = {This study investigates the impact of learning styles on students' mathematics achievement. Using a sample of 60 students, data were collected through a learning styles questionnaire and standardized achievement tests. The results revealed significant differences in performance based on learning preferences, with visual learners outperforming auditory and kinesthetic learners. A one-way ANOVA confirmed the statistical significance of these differences (F (2, 57) = 248.12, p < 0.001). Additionally, multiple regression analysis indicated that learning styles accounted for approximately 89% of the variance in achievement scores. The findings suggest that aligning instructional strategies with students' learning preferences can enhance academic outcomes. The study emphasizes the importance of employing diverse teaching methods to accommodate various learning styles and improve mathematics learning experiences. Recommendations for educators include integrating multimodal instructional approaches and assessing individual learning preferences to foster an inclusive and effective classroom environment.},
