How does EspaLuz help with everyday moments in Spain?

EspaLuz has a guide for Spain on the doctor, the hospital and the pharmacy, migration and public offices, the bank, including Sistema Nacional de Salud, the public health system. Type help and the topic in WhatsApp (for example help doctor), or just ask in your own words. For an appointment, the voice interpreter repeats what you say in Spanish and what they answer in English.

What do the children get?

Children learn with Pere the sloth 🦥 and Titi the monkey 🐒: they talk, trace letters and short sentences on a tablet, and show a photo that becomes the lesson. You get a short report of what they practised. More about EspaLuz.
