Abstract: This descriptive study has three objectives: first, to determine students’ thinking styles based on Sternberg’s Theory of Mental Self-Government; second, to determine the teaching style used by Philippine politics teachers as perceived by their students; and, third, to ascertain the teaching style students preferred their teachers to use. To achieve the second and third objectives, Grasha’s teaching styles were considered in the study: Expert, Formal Authority, Personal Model, Facilitator, and Delegator. 149 Grade 12 students from the Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) Strand of the University of the East Caloocan served as respondents of the study. Data were gathered through survey questionnaires. Legislative, Judicial, External, and multimodal thinkers perceived their teachers as Expert, while Executive and Internal thinkers perceived them as Formal Authority. Legislative, External, and multimodal thinkers preferred their teachers to be Formal Authority, while Internal thinkers preferred Facilitator, and Executive and Judicial thinkers preferred Personal Model.
