Learning is generally regarded as change in behavior. It is affected by many factors e.g. pupils intelligence, age, social background and interest etc. Besides this, teaching play’s prominent role in learning. The main focus of teaching is to facilitate learning. Although each student learns up to his capacities but these capacities probably can be enhanced with the help of teaching. It must be designed in such a way that appropriate learning conditions can be developed and desirable changes can be brought in learners.
