This is blamed solely on the teaching methods in application hence the study The study adopted a Descriptive research design. This enhanced the researcher to obtain a better understanding of the impact of teaching methods on effective perfo1111ance of science by students in Gaitheri secondary school, Muranga district. The method chosen allowed a collection of comprehensive and intensive data and provided an in-depth understanding of the topic under study. Infonnation collected was analyzed and edited to create consistency and completeness. After collecting the questionnaires they were edited for completeness and consistency across the respondents and to locate omissions.
