点评:The Na'atik Institute offers an excellent Spanish (and Maya) immersion experience. They have a beautiful, comfortable school building with air conditioning and a terrific library. Their teachers are excellent and the teaching was personally crafted to focus on my goals as a student. I loved staying with and getting to know my Mayan host family. I very much enjoyed the chance to visit the Raxalaj and tortilla making Mayan cultural centers. It was really fun playing games in English and Spanish with the teenage English students from Carrillo. This was my second visit to Na'atik and I plan to go back and begin studying Yucateca Maya. For me, an experience where my investment in a weeklong class supports Na'atik and its staff, my host family, and Na'atik's ability to help local kids go to university by strengthening their English skills is ideal. I also deeply appreciate the chance to spend so much time with Mayans in the school, my host family and the community and to learn about their culture, history, and language.
翻译:Na'atik 学院提供绝佳的西班牙语(和玛雅语)沉浸式学习体验。他们拥有一栋漂亮舒适的校舍,配有空调和一流的图书馆。他们的老师非常优秀,教学内容也经过精心设计,以我的学生目标为导向。我喜欢和我的玛雅寄宿家庭住在一起,并与他们建立联系。我非常享受参观拉克萨拉吉(Raxalaj)和制作玉米饼的玛雅文化中心的机会。和来自卡里略(Carrillo)的青少年英语学生一起玩英语和西班牙语游戏非常有趣。这是我第二次访问 Na'atik,我计划再次访问那里,开始学习尤卡坦玛雅语。对我来说,参加为期一周的课程,能够支持 Na'atik 及其员工、我的寄宿家庭,以及 Na'atik 通过提高英语水平帮助当地孩子考上大学,这种经历非常理想。我也非常珍惜有机会在学校、寄宿家庭和社区与玛雅人共度如此多的时光,了解他们的文化、历史和语言。
