This research is survey research method. The instruments used were interviews and questionnaires. Participants as informants consisted of 16 vocational teachers from 4 Vocational High Schools in Bandung. The conclusion of this study is that the teaching style applied by the electrical engineering teacher in the Vocational High Schools is a conventional teaching style based on the data obtained which is 43%. The teachers uses a classical teaching style that conveys old values and the teacher determines the subject matter by himself without asking students for opinions so that it is not in accordance with the interests of students, and there is no role of students in the teaching process so students only play a passive role.
