One of these concerns is regarding the use of first language/mother tongue in the classroom which has been a topic of discussion in EFL/ESL classrooms. Numerous empirical research studies have been done in different countries on this topic. Almost all findings have showed the same result: judicious use of first language was effective in assisting learners in their understanding of the learning process.

This study offers the strict teachers of English only policy a better understanding of the use of the first language in order to help the learners to acquire the target language, English.
