examination of the effects of teaching methods and academic performance was carried

formulated in order to guide the study. Qualitative research method based on district

Systematic sampling was used to get 6 schools out of the 15 in Winam Division.
Stratified sampling was then used to get the sample size of 60 students. Selfadministered
interviews as well as face- to -face interview were used to obtain data
required to meet the specific objectives of the study. Face to face interviews with teachers
provided the research within. The findings revealed that performance levels are higher
where learner centered methods are used frequently, however, this may vary with the age

the performance outcome in English. There may be no difference in performance in
English between boys and girls. The indicator of performance in this case is their score in English achievement tests.
