Abstract
The study investigated the effects of Warm and Varying Individualized Teacher Attention (WVITA) Classroom on students’ Achievements. The design of the study is the within subject design. This is a variant of independent group method without a control group in which all subjects are exposed to treatment. Independent t-test and one sample t-test analyses were used to test the three hypotheses generated. The results showed significant difference in performance among high achievers and low achievers. The average achievers were too stable to provoke anxiety for any significant result (t = 1.72, a <.05). It was recommended that attempts should be made to engage effective teachers that can create a warm and highly interactive classroom climate, and also moderate factors that are outside the purview of the classroom for improved learning.
