The writer conducted a research about language learning styles in accelerated class at SMA Negeri 3 Malang.

The theory used in this study is from Gardner (1985) about types of learning styles. The purpose of this study is to increase the ability of the students in learning as they know their preferred learning styles.The approach used is qualitative study. The participants of this study were twenty two students.

The data analysis was conducted by identifying each type of learning styles used by the participants, classifying the types of learning styles, explaining the data taken from the questionnaire and interview sheet, and drawing conclusion based on the problems of study and the result of data analysis.The finding of this study shows that each student preferred only one of the three types of learning styles to be their way in learning English. Furthermore, visual learning style becomes the most dominant type of learning styles used by the participants since it got the highest number of students who preferred to use it. From the result of interview sheet, most of the participants preferred visual learning style because they considered it as an easy way to do since their class are facilitated by many visual media to support their study and give some advantages for their learning process and their English score.In conclusion, all types of learning styles based on Gardner’s theory are used by the participants.
