This study aims at describing learning styles and strategies between male and female students and identifying whether the learning strategies are determined by their learning style or by their gender. This study used a descriptive-qualitative design and used a questionnaire and interview for the data collection. The data were analyzed in three stages: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The researcher took the data from 6th semester students of the English department for the academic year 2022–2023 at UIN Walisongo Semarang. It was found that male students use various learning styles, such as tactile, individual, auditory, kinesthetic, group, and visual. They also employ compensation, metacognitive, and cognitive strategies. Female students use affective, social, and memory strategies. The results show that gender and learning styles do not influence learning strategies. It seems to imply that people can select their preferred learning style in accordance with their areas of weakness in learning.
