Then experimental group was taught using visual learning style-based instruction and control group was taught by using lecture method. After completin15 lessons a post- test was held for both groups. Then the data was analyzed by using t-test to make inferences. Null hypothesis was rejected at 5% level of significance and result was made that the visual learning style-based instruction has a significant effect on the academic achievement of the learners. The analysis of the data revealed that the academic achievement of the students of experimental group was raised by using the visual learning style-based instruction.
