Abstract

This study explored the learning styles of 50 MAT-VTE Generation Y (millennial) learners and the teaching styles they preferred for their Graduate School professors. This employed the descriptive-correlational research design. Majority of the learners absorbed and retained information better when pictures, diagrams, and charts were presented to them. Their sexwas not associated with their learning styles. Respondents who graduated from public tertiary schools were more of visual learners while those from private institutions were more auditory and kinesthetic. Likewise, respondents who came from rural areas were more auditory and kinesthetic and those from urban areas were more of visual learners. The respondents preferred funny, casual, physically expressive and intelligent teachers. Teachers who taught repeatedly, meticulously and raised tough questions and disturbing opinions did not appeal to them.
