    Naturlingua have just launched a special offer for English-speaking participants in their summer camps. Because our goal is to get as many English-speakers as Spanish-speakers as participants, and currently we have more of the latter, we are offering 50% off to those who speak English as mother tongue. That means current price is now 495€ for them, instead of regular 990€. For more information please email julio@naturlingua.com or visit www.naturlingua.com
