The purpose of this research is to obtain a description of the mathematical communication skills in terms of the learning styles of Grade XI TKR 3 students at SMK Negeri 1 Tanara for the 2023-2024 academic year. This research is qualitative in nature. Six subjects were selected, representing each learning style, from Grade XI TKR 3 students at SMK Negeri 1 Tanara, Tanara District, Serang Regency. The data collection techniques used were observation, interviews, documentation, and tests based on the indicators of mathematical communication skills, namely: (1) the ability to express mathematical symbols through everyday events, (2) the ability to determine the solution set by relating real objects to mathematical ideas, (3) the ability to explain mathematical problems related to elimination, (4) the ability to analyze mathematical problems related to substitution, and (5) the ability to evaluate mathematical thinking and strategies used in problems according to the observed object. The results showed that (1) subjects with a visual learning style have good mathematical concept comprehension on indicators 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5; (2) subjects with an auditory learning style have good mathematical communication on indicators 1, 2, and 5, but performed poorly on indicators 3 and 4; and (3) subjects with a kinesthetic learning style have good mathematical communication skills on indicators 1 and 2, but performed poorly on indicators 3, 4, and 5.
