Using the students’ mother tongue in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom has
always been considered a controversial topic in the educational field. Currently, the vast
majority of teachers argue that the use of the First Language (L1) has more detrimental than
beneficial effects as a consequence of the erroneous belief that Pedagogical Translation (PT) is
the same as the old-fashioned Grammar-Translation Method. Nevertheless, the number of
scholars who advocate for the application of PT and, hence, the L1 in the foreign language
classes has increased considerably in recent years.
The present study focuses on the implementation and evaluation of PT as a didactic resource in
an EFL class of a Spanish secondary school. To this end, a didactic proposal which contains PT
activities was applied in an EFL class of 1st of ESO, whereas another didactic proposal without
PT activities was applied to a different EFL class of the same educational level. Thus, the aim
of this paper is to determine the effectiveness of PT depending on whether the group in which
PT activities were implemented shows a higher scoring as compared with the other group.
Furthermore, this study also analyzes the attitude that the students have towards the presence of
their mother tongue in the EFL class and their level of satisfaction regarding PT activities.
In essence, the results obtained in this study prove that PT activities can be an effective
educative resource in terms of learning vocabulary and that, in general, students with a low
level of English have a positive opinion regarding the use of their mother tongue in the EFL
class. [-]
