Resumo

Pouco se sabe sobre o ensino de inglês a jovens aprendizes no Chile. Apesar da importância dada pelo governo chileno ao assunto inglês, sua instrução não é obrigatória até a 5ª série. Embora o Ministério da Educação tenha projetado planos e programas opcionais para ensinar inglês desde o pré-escolar até a quarta série, este material pode não necessariamente atender às necessidades comunicativas dos alunos e professores. Este artigo visa entender e comparar o NT2 chileno considerando os profissionais da educação, suas diretrizes de treinamento e autoridades e o contexto ao que a literatura tem explorado na área da educação infantil, desde as características dos jovens aprendizes até o ambiente da sala de aula. As considerações e reflexões finais estão incluídas em relação ao que pode ser melhorado.
