English Summer Town (EST) is a one week Total Immersion Program for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in Chile. From January 6 to January 11, 2008, 96 EFL teachers came from all over Chile, from Arica in the North to Punta Arenas in the South, to participate in EST 2008. It was held at the Centro de Perfeccionamiento e Investigación Pedagogía (CPEIP). During the week the teachers spoke English 100% of the time. They attended EFL training in the mornings and cultural events in the afternoons and evenings. The teachers networked, made new friends, shared their best practices, and learned from EFL / ELT experts such as Thomas Baker and the visiting Fulbright Scholars. Talks were given by past Fulbright Scholars and the highlight was the opportunity to meet the new Ambassador to Chile, Ambassador Paul Simons.
