Business education in Kazakhstan is expanding, but teaching methods are becoming outdated. This study examines how Kazakhstani business students view effective teaching methods and explores which current teaching techniques align with their needs and preferences. This study surveyed 299 business school students in Almaty, Kazakhstan using an 18-item questionnaire. The survey used a 5-point Likert scale to measure students’ satisfaction with current teaching methods and their preferences for different approaches. The data were analyzed using ANOVA, chi-square tests, and descriptive statistics. Validity and reliability were tested using the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) test and Cronbach Alpha (α) tests. The findings show that students were only moderately satisfied with the common lecture-based teaching style. Hypothesis testing found no significant difference in how students from different specialties viewed lecture effectiveness (p=0.78), suggesting similar opinions across fields. The study also found no link between students’ age and how much they valued technology in learning (p=0.634). This study has limitations, including its reliance on self-reported data and its focus on one city. Future research could compare results across regions or use qualitative methods to gain deeper insights into students’ views on teaching methods.
