Feedback to students is the key instrument for teaching and learning. But we have less information about how students perceive feedback when they receive it from their teachers in the classroom. Therefore, the purpose of this qualitative study was to gain a deeper insight into the perceptions of the Girls’ secondary schools’ students about the teachers’ feedback they receive in the classroom. The study used semi-structured interview for data collection. Through non probability sampling, 15 students were interviewed from class 9th and 10th, aged between 16- 17 from the public Girls’ secondary schools in Turbat, Pakistan. Interview transcripts were coded and were thematically analyzed. The findings of the study showed that the students perceived feedback more beneficial for their learning. The students perceived positive and negative feedback in two distinct ways, the positive feedback leads them toward successful learning, however the negative feedback disturbs them emotionally and psychologically. Furthermore, the students expect the teachers to be well-equipped with the quality criteria of effective feedback. Moreover, the negative feedback needs proper time and more elaboration for the students’ understanding to give fruitful results. The teachers must about their students’ needs and feelings and they need to be trained to assess their students’ performance and they must provide constructive feedback to their students so the students are able given their best in the classrooms.
