This study aimed to determine the effect of Kumon learning model on mathematics learning outcomes in cognitive style view in the Eighth grade students of SMPN 21 Makassar. The research design was quasi experiment with factorial design. The population of this study was the Eighth grade students of SMPN 21 Makassar and the sample technique used was random sampling. The instruments of this study were mathematics learning achievement test, which was divided into pretest and posttest, and GEFT (Get Embed Figure Test) which aimed to categorize the students into two types, FI (field independent) and FD (field dependent). The results indicated that the average improvement of mathematics learning outcomes by applying Kumon model in experimental class increased 34.06% and only 28.83% for control class in the eighth grade students of SMPN 21 Makassar. It could be concluded that the students with FI cognitive style using Kumon model had higher learning outcomes than the students with FI cognitive style taught without Kumon model. And the researcher did not find any significant differences on the students’ learning outcomes of FD cognitive styles in experimental class and control class. Therefore, it could be concluded that Kumon learning model affected the mathematics learning outcomes in cognitive style view in the Eighth grade students of SMPN 21 Makassar.
