Influence of Home Environment on Students’ Achievement in English: A Systematic Literature Review
Year: 2024
Type: review
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: A child’s ‘home’ is believed to be their first educational institution. The home environment is composed of both physical and psychological elements. Before going to school, children learn all of their formal, informal, and moral information at home. The child acquires languages to communicate with others in addition to a variety of other abilities. A conducive home environment not only helps students learn the English language but also improves their overall academic achievement. The present study aimed to find out the influence of the home environment on students’ achievement in English. The researcher has adopted a systematic literature review method, under which articles from the last four years (2020-2024) were reviewed and analysed. The findings of the study showed a positive impact of a favourable home environment and its various factors on students’ achievement in English. The researcher also found students’ academic achievement was negatively impacted by many factors i.e., low socio-economic status, parents’ strictness, less participation of parents, etc.
