As a key aspect of pedagogical competence, lecturers' teaching style significantly impacts the behavioural changes in students, especially student engagement. The research on the impact of teaching style on primary teacher education students' engagement, however, contains very little data. Using the three-factor structure of student engagement and Grasha's teaching style model, the present study carried out a crucial inquiry into the relationship between the teaching style of lecturers and the engagement of primary teacher education students. The 1229 responses from sophomore, junior, and senior students were subjected to a MANCOVA to evaluate the research model. The findings demonstrated that primary teacher education students' levels of engagement vary greatly depending on the various teaching styles that their lecturers have used. Lecturers must deliberately choose and modify their teaching styles to enhance the engagement of primary teacher education students.
