To analyze the data, the researcher uses descriptive statistics to find out the students‘ listening achievement and their learning style based on the five categories; very good, good, moderate, low and failed.

Secondly, based on the result above there were 2 learning style that correlate with listening achievement there were kinesthetic learning style showed that the coefficient correlate was -.317 and sig (2-tailed) was 0.038 ≤ 0.05 and group learning style showed that the coefficient correlate was -.0.366 and sig (2-tailed) was 0.01 ≤ 0.05. Also, the result of the correlation between students‘ learning style and students listening score showed that the coefficient correlation was -.349 and sig (2-tailed) was .022 it means that sig (2-tailed) ≤ 0.05 it means H1 was accepted so there is significant correlation. Meanwhile, coefficient correlate is negative correlate because the coefficient correlation was -.349.
