Summary
The classroom is where pupils learn several abilities that are thought to be necessary for learning and academic success. When students first go into the classroom, they make assumptions about the type of class they will be in. The unstated and unwritten assumptions about each other's attitudes and behaviors are referred to as classroom culture. ‘A classroom gives us insight into teachers' and students' attitudes, expectations, and behaviors,' (Tudor 1996). Education allows students to think in all aspects by equipping them with the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes to invigorate their problem-solving talents. Students should be taught in a way that allows them to actively participate in the learning process. Teaching and learning procedures are two of the most crucial activities for teachers and students in educational environments. Aside from that, a learner-centered approach allows students to concentrate on their knowledge and assist one another in solving issues. Learnercentered approaches give learners liberty and make them responsible for their own learning in the beginning
