Na'atik provides much needed English classes for local and Indigenous students, giving them access to educational and career opportunities that would otherwise be denied them. English is requirement for access to most universities and without it local people cannot gain the skills and qualifications they need to compete with their peers from more advantaged parts of the country
Na’atik comes from the Maya expression ‘To’on na’atik’ meaning ‘We’re understanding each other’. We are a nonprofit intercultural language school located in the historic heartland of the Maya Resistance in southern Mexico offering immersive and online language programs in Spanish, Maya and English. We believe that cross-cultural exchange is the key to true understanding.
