Los ninos have fallen in love with La Escuela Meztli. They want to stay longer!   We have been very happy with our experiences aqui en Tulum and especially loved the school. Mil gracias!  We will be back and definitely give the school a very good recommendation.  You have a very good vision Sara!

Our family has had a wonderful experience at Meztli. We are especially impressed with Maistra Rosy and the work she did with our children! She is an amazing teacher for young children and adults alike.

My 6 and 8 year old daughters took classes at this school for 2 weeks.  Their teachers, Rosy and Mariana, were amazing!  They used games, art, and projects to making learning Spanish fun. My girls woke up every morning eager to attend class, which is no small feat during summer vacation. And their evening activities (art, board games, cooking and dancing) were so fun. A great opportunity to learn some history, gain more vocabulary and meet other students. I highly recommend this school to anyone visiting a Tulum!!!  Muchas gracias por todo!!!

Our child wasn't receptive to learning Spanish at the bilingual academy in which he is enrolled, they couldn't get him motivated. After two weeks at the children's program at Meztli last summer, we saw a complete change in his willingness to learn a new language this year and he is now excelling in the program. Thank you Meztli!!

My husband, 5 year old son and I just finished studying at Meztli. I cannot say enough positive things about the experience. ALL of the teachers were wonderful. We each had a different teacher as I am intermediate level, and my son and husband are beginners. I had a crazy idea of having a family Spanish learning vacation and I had no idea how it was going to work out but it was FABULOUS. The setting of the school is delightful and central in Tulum. When you enter off the streets through a gorgeous antique wooden door, you enter a little paradise with garden paths winding through an expansive property with handmade mosaics built into the walls and benches and pathways. Important for all of us was that the classes were in lovely open-air palapas surrounded by gardens. My son's teacher, Rosy, was especially wonderful. She kept my son busy and engaged in FUN activities. He had no idea he was in school! He ran around the gardens whenever he needed to and got to walk around and learn about the neighborhood, the flowers and a taco stand. The crafts that Rosy engaged him in were brilliant. He made a necklace from pasta shells, as he learned to count in Spanish. The highlight of my experience was a guided tour (in Spanish, of course) with Sara, my teacher. She took me to a Mayan cemetery and church and we conversed in Spanish. Rather than correcting my Spanish as we talked, she took notes and after our excursion she reviewed all of the things that I screwed up. In addition to the wonderful classes, we were invited to events like yoga in spanish (my favorite). The teacher brought his flute and serenaded us as we relaxed at the end. Since I do yoga regularly in Austin, I was able to learn a lot of words for body parts and movements. There was also a lovely party celebrating a traditional holiday where you got the sense of a real community within the school, in which we felt centrally included. I would be happy to respond further if you have more questions. We are definitely returning to do this again!

Meztli was a magical experience for my son and me! The setting is exquisite. Sara and the crew are warm hearted, welcoming and extremely professional. The classes were individually designed for each of our needs...My son was singing songs, playing games, making friends and learning simple phrases while my classes were designed by Sara and Paola around my personal interests. I was reading a bit of poetry , discussing the politics and mayan culture on my level all while brushing up on long forgotten verb conjugations. We also took advantage of some. the extra classes offered by the school. I enjoyed yoga each morning of our 2 week visit and we both loved Daniel's cooking classes! Meztli was truly a springboard for a rich overall experience in Tulum. The crew made us feel like old friends and gave us the insider view and tips on their lovely city. We both made a great connection with our teachers ...Our time in Tulum definitely would not have been the same without Meztli.
