Trainers in the family medicine program must have knowledge of the preferred method of education of residents to develop appropriate teaching methods. LS is defined as an individual‘s unique approach to learning. This study’s intent was to determine the preferred learning styles of family medicine residents in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and to compare those styles with sociodemographic personal characteristics. A descriptive cross–sectional study using the VARK questionnaire was conducted among family medicine residents from all training centers in various Saudi Arabian provinces. Results revealed that the unimodal aural LS was the most preferred while the multimodal LS was the least preferred. A significant relation was found between visual LS and residency level (p= 0.045). However, there was no relation between a preferred LS and either sociodemographic characteristics or GPA. These findings can help training programs improve the quality of the teaching process to better fit preferred learning styles.
