Let's Talk Indian!
Tó mitákuye, čhaŋtéwašteya napéčhiyuza kšto! (Hello my relative, I'm happy to shake your hand!)
My name is Tasha Hauff. I founded Zintka Education Services to help Native educators teach their Native languages.
Zintka is an old word for bird, in my Native language, Lakȟótiyapi- the Lakota language. In Lakota culture some birds do a lot of talking. They still talk Indian today!
Zintka Education Services is dedicated to ensuring that our Native languages continue to be spoken in our communities.
While each of our Nations may be learning and teaching different languages, we are often striving for the same goals, and there are many research-backed strategies that can help all Native language educators. Through Native Language Curriculum Coaching and Community Language Research, I guide educators through these strategies, help them problem solve, and facilitate team-work so they can build programs that empower communities with their tribal-specific Language, Knowledge, and Values.
