performance unlike the lecture- teachers centred teaching method which many felt is a factor towards poor
performance and High level motivation of teachers increase morale in terms of rewards and remuneration will
increase the morale of teachers hence committed to their work reducing absenteeism and changing their altitude
which will lead to syllabus coverage and like of profession leading to learners confidence and eventually
