The research design was experimental and quantitative, and data were collected using a census sampling technique. A pre-test and post-test were conducted to measure the students’ performance before and after applying the activity-based teaching method. The results showed that the post-test scores were higher than the pre-test scores, which means that the activity-based teaching method had a significant positive effect on students’ academic performance in the English subject. The findings suggest that activity-based learning increases students’ engagement, understanding, and retention of concepts, leading to improved academic achievement. It is recommended that teachers might be use activity-based methods such as group work, role play, and hands-on tasks to make English lessons more interesting and effective.
