Although many variables have been identified that hinders the low achievement among learners at this stage. In an attempt to explore how learning styles and cognitive styles affect the learning and nature of relationship these styles have with the achievement of learners. The data from the research indicates that there is a link between cognitive style and learning style which also determines the achievement of learners. The results from the data indicate that the learners having field dependents and field independents (cognitive style) have different learning styles. Since, the leaners differs in their cognitive style, therefore if an attempt is made to identify them will improve the learning. It is also argued that by supplementing the curriculum transaction with the awareness of cognitive and learning styles, the teachers can help their learners to reach the desired learning levels.
