The goal of this website is to serve as a resource for anyone wanting to learn about Mam language and culture. We hope that by providing learning resources in Mam (from San Juan Atitán), English, and Spanish, and by utilizing many modalities of learning such as text, imagery, audio, and videos, more people can learn about the Mam language and culture. In addition, we hope it raises awareness of the strong presence of Mam speakers and Mam culture in the U.S. For more information, you can find our contact information on the About Us page.  

Whether you are new to learning Mam, have taken a few classes and want to improve, speak Mam and want to improve fluency, reading, or writing skills, or just want to become familiar with Mam language and culture, we ecourage you to check out our new learning path "Learn Mam with Sophia." 

Follow Sophia, a young women born in San Juan Atitán, Guatemala and raised in Oakland as she travels back to San Juan Atitán to revisit her home and learn Mam.
