The aim of this research work is to detect challenges that English and Nahuatl learners face when developing writing skills during first level in order to suggest strategies for implementing in future studies. The importance of comparing both languages is because Nahuatl is considered as an endangered language and English has significant pedagogy for the teaching-learning process. Therefore, it is expected that some methodologies can complement each other. The following results were obtained using a qualitative case study since it is allowed to explore and identify different factors that have the same purpose. In this case, there was a comparison between English and Nahuatl learners to determine the main challenges in both situations. Hence, 2 groups were selected for being observed and interviewed: an English class and a Nahuatl class. In addition, this research was designed for being carried out online due to the Covid-19 situation that is being lived currently.
