Description
Summary:This paper reviewed 9 articles published in the last 3 years (from 2019 to 2022) studying the language transfer of Chinese K-12 students who studied English. The results showed that in areas such as phonetic learning and conceptual understanding, the mother tongue positively influences English language learning; in some aspects of English vocabulary and writing, students are vulnerable to the confinement of their mother tongue thinking. The research also aimed to provide some pedagogical recommendations for promoting positive transfer and inhibiting negative transfer for students in the context of K-12 education.
