"No me enseñaste" (English: You Did Not Teach Me) is a song by Mexican singer and songwriter Thalía, taken from her self-titled eighth studio album released in 2002. Written by Estéfano and Julio Reyes, it was produced by the former. "No me enseñaste" was released as the second single from the album during July 2002 in America, while being the third one in Europe. It is a rock ballad which features electric guitar, piano and percussion. Lyrically, it's a heartbreaking ballad about desolation and the pain one feels after the end of a relationship.

Critically, "No me enseñaste" is one of Thalia's most recognizable ballads, with the majority of the critics commending either its lyrics or Thalia's performance on the track. Concurrently with the critics, the song also attained success on the charts; it topped the US Hot Latin Songs for two weeks - her first song to do so -, while also topping the Bolivian and Mexican charts, as well as reaching the top-three in Argentina and Panama, and top-five in Perú and Venezuela.

Thalía shot the music video for the song in Soho, Manhattan (in New York City) and it was directed by Antti Jokinen. Released in August of the same year, the video features the singer in a garage-style space with her band, intercut with shots of Thalía singing in the rain. Thalía performed the song numerous times, including the 2002 Latin Grammy Awards, where she stood atop a platform, with a costume featuring an extended, illuminated skirt effect, as well as the Premio Lo Nuestro 2004, where the song was nominated for a Lo Nuestro Award for Pop Song of the Year. It was also featured on her 2004 High Voltage Tour, and part of a medley on both Viva! Tour (2013) and Latina Love Tour (2016).
