Listeros-

I, too, have been following this thread closely and have enjoyed reading individual's
tales of learning Nahuatl.  My introduction to Nahuatl came through research I did
last year under the supervision of DavĂ­d Carrasco at Harvard.  (I wrote my graduate
thesis on the so-called Testerian catechisms used in the evangelization of the
indigenous population of Mexico.)  Since then I have been working (slowly!) through
Lockhart's "Nahuatl As Written: Lessons in Older Written Nahuatl."  However, without
the aid of a master teacher or even a group of like-minded students, the going has
been very slow.  So, my question is: Short of attending a summer program in Mexico
(travel is difficult right now due to young children), does anyone know of a Nahuatl
scholar in the Boston, MA area or can anyone connect me with others in this part of
the country who have an interest in learning Nahuatl?

Thank you!
