This study took place in Pasir Pengarayan Rokan Hulu Regency, Riau Province, Indonesia. This study intends to identify the connection between teaching styles and student achievement at the sixth grade level of the Pasir Pengarayan elementary school. The respondents of this study were 40 elementary school sixth graders and 13 teachers who were picked out of the Pasir Pengarayan elementary school. This research employed a questionnaire review method. When student achievement declined, a number of teachers said their students felt uncomfortable in class and had low proficiency, which encouraged researchers to observe teachers from a teacher's point of view as well as from a student's point of view. To ensure that the teacher's teaching style is suitable for the learning style of students, consideration should be given to the teaching and learning process in the classroom. Grasha's teaching style model was used to determine the relationship between teaching styles, so the researcher used descriptive analysis by studying the mean value and inference analysis by looking at the manifestation of the Spearman correlation reliability value. The link between the teacher's teaching style and student achievement can be demonstrated using correlation and significance analysis, where the expert model shows a correlation of r = 0.701 and a significance of 0.004, thus implying Ho is rejected. Furthermore, the facilitator model's teaching style shows a relationship coefficient of r = 0.516 and significance of sig = 0.001, which means that Ho is rejected, in the sense that the facilitator model's teaching style has an impact on student achievement. Based on the dominance of the given value and the inference correlation value, it is assumed that the expert teaching model and the facilitator teaching model are applied by sixth grade teachers at the Pasir Penagarayan elementary school in front of their students, who have demonstrated their proficiency.
