The learner-centered teaching technology has become one of the most influential pedagogical approaches in modern education systems due to its focus on individual learner needs, interests, abilities, and learning styles. This article analyzes the effectiveness of learner-centered teaching technology in the educational process based on scientific and empirical research. The study examines its theoretical foundations, methodological principles, learning outcomes, and practical implementation in educational institutions. The analysis demonstrates that learner-centered teaching positively influences academic achievement, learner motivation, critical thinking, and self-regulation skills. The article also discusses challenges in implementation and provides evidence-based conclusions drawn from international and regional pedagogical studies.
