Gustar does not literally mean "to like", but rather to be pleasing.
Me gusta = it is pleasing to me.
Use indirect object pronouns me, te, le, nos, os, and les to indicate whom an activity is pleasing. Place the indirect object pronoun immediately before the conjugated form of gustar. To say that someone does not like something, no is used directly before the indirect object pronoun.
Examples:
A él no le gusta jugar al fútbol. A mí no me gusta ir a la escuela.
