This study investigates the correlation between English teachers’ teaching styles and students’ learning achievement at Public Junior High Schools in Tembilahan. The research employed a quantitative correlational design involving 150 eighth-grade students and 5 English teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a teaching style questionnaire based on the Grasha-Richmann model and a multiple-choice achievement test. The results revealed that the most dominant teaching style among teachers was the Facilitator style (40%), indicating a student-centered approach emphasizing guidance and active participation. The correlation analysis using Pearson Product Moment showed a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.401) between teachers’ teaching styles and students’ learning achievement; however, the relationship was not statistically significant (Sig = 0.503 > 0.05).
