Na'atik Language and Culture Institute

Na'atik Language and Culture Institute We’re a nonprofit English, Spanish & Maya language school in the Zona Maya of Mexico. You can support this program by donating or studying with us.

Our name comes from the Maya expression “To’on Na’atik” meaning “we’re understanding each other.” We're an intercultural hub and believe that cross-cultural exchange is the key to true understanding. It is only once we understand each other that we can see what is really possible. Our purpose is to inspire global citizenship while supporting the local Carrillo Puerto community through our love of languages, celebrating different cultures, and learning in an authentic, respectful way that promotes intercultural understanding. Our Spanish and Maya Immersion and Online Programs give you the chance to really learn Spanish or Maya. They also subsidizes our local English language program and library where over 200 local students are learning English. Contact us at [email protected], or simply add us on Amazon Smile so that a percentage of every purchase you make goes back toward supporting the school: http://smile.amazon.com/ch/46-5665700.

Mauro started studying at Na’atik when he was in first grade, and today he can see how much he has grown in his learning journey, from understanding songs and movies in English to having conversations with tourists.

For him, learning English has been fun, and he also sees the language as a tool that will help him achieve his dreams of traveling, working in tourism, and becoming an architectural designer.

We’re happy to continue being part of your learning journey and to see how much you enjoy learning the language, how much you’ve progressed, and how you’re becoming more confident using what you learn in real-life situations.

A big Na’atik welcome to Linden, our new Fundraising Manager!

Linden joins us with a background in community development and nonprofit work, and we’re excited to have her bring her experience to Na’atik and help us grow the support behind our work.

Her journey has taken her to different parts of the world. She has lived in the U.S., Jordan, and Indonesia, and speaks English, Arabic, and Indonesian. Now, she’s beginning her next chapter in Mexico and continuing to improve her Spanish.

At Na’atik, Linden will be helping us strengthen our fundraising efforts, build new relationships, and connect more people with the work happening in our community.

Welcome to the team, Linden! We’re very happy to have you with us.

WE HEARD THE STUDENTS. NOW HEAR THEIR MOMS. ❤️

There are just two weeks left to make sure every student gets the opportunity to keep learning and growing. Become part of something bigger and sponsor a student today.

In their own words, moms share the changes they’ve seen in their children: greater confidence, new opportunities, and the pride they feel as they watch them learn and grow.

For these families, an English scholarship is more than a class. It is an opportunity for their children to keep learning, building confidence, and preparing for a brighter future.

But some students are still waiting for someone to sponsor their scholarship.

We’re getting closer, but we’re not there yet.

Every donation brings us one step closer to making sure every student has the opportunity to continue learning.

Help us reach the finish line. Sponsor a student today and give a family one more reason to be proud.

DONATE NOW.

If Spanish homographs were people, we could say they’d always have a twin. That’s why they could constantly confuse you… and they love it! But don’t worry, there’s something that can help you figure out which twin you’re dealing with: context.

Did you know these words have a twin?
