The use of the L1 and translation in foreign language teaching (FLT) has been widely analysed in recent decades. However, little attention has been paid to student’s beliefs on the use of translation in FLT. Thus, the present study aims at showing secondary school Spanish FL learners’ reflections on the use of translation activities in the teaching and learning of Spanish as a second language in a secondary school in the United Kingdom. Our findings reveal that students not only consider translation a natural activity in their learning process, but also a beneficial tool in the acquisition of a foreign language.
