This study looked at how students' achievement in Physics in senior secondary school one was affected by explicit problem solving instruction. A quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test design was used. The study involved two student groups: the Experimental Group and the Control Group. While the control group did not receive formal teaching on problem-solving techniques, the experimental group did receive such training. Utilizing the Physics Achievement Test, data were gathered and analysed using descriptive statistics and ANCOVA. The findings show that providing clear guidance on how to solve problems improves students' achievement in physics. According to this study, providing clear instructions on problem solving was beneficial for both males and females. To improve students' achievement in Physics, physics teachers should provide clear guidance on problem solving to their students.
