Earlier this summer, Ke$ha's song "Blow" was named this year's official
EF Summer Song and students competed in a dance competition to meet her in
person and perform at the event. The winning team's choreography was voted
on by EF students and their dance moves have been taught to thousands of EF
students.

Ke$ha met the winning team, led by Swedish student Sabi Sabahudin (16)
and five of his friends, before giving the private concert to EF students
studying in the UK. The concert reached its peak when Ke$ha's song "Blow"
started and the entire crowd began dancing the winning choreography in
unison.

"I can't believe we got to meet Ke$ha and perform our dance in front of
the crowd," says Sabi, who had been preparing for many weeks. "It was
incredible to see so many people dancing along - definitely a highlight of
our summer."

In addition to preparing students with top-rated language learning
courses, EF schools give students the opportunity to have fun, make friends
from all over the world and have the summer of their lives.

"We are thrilled to have Ke$ha here to perform the EF Summer Song in
front of all our students since she is such big star to many of our
students," said Mauro Cuervo, President of EF Language Travel. "The
Summeranza student party is a great opportunity to show that language
learning abroad goes far beyond traditional classroom learning - our
students have tons of fun too."

The excitement of this unforgettable experience remained on the
glittering faces of the students when they boarded buses back to their EF
course towns across England.
