This study examines how different achievement goal orientations influence learning styles and academic performance among students in the Arabic Language Education (PBA) program. Using a narrative inquiry approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving students and lecturers at STIT Darul Fattah. Data analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s four-stage model: data collection, condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal two dominant goal orientations: Performance Approach and Mastery Approach. Students with a performance-oriented mindset often adopt a diverging learning style and achieve high academic performance across subjects. In contrast, students with a mastery orientation tend to align with an assimilating style, excelling in courses that match their personal learning goals and intellectual interests. Drawing on David Kolb’s experiential learning theory, the study highlights how achievement goals shape learning styles, which in turn affect academic outcomes. This research underscores a dynamic and reciprocal relationship between motivation, learning preferences, and success in Arabic language learning, offering actionable insights for educators to tailor instruction based on students' motivational profiles and enhance language learning effectiveness.
