What our students say

How do we teach Lithuanian?

We use effective methods of learning the Lithuanian language based on knowledge of Lithuanian culture, art and traditions.

During the course, participants listen to a variety of audio recordings, conversations, and songs in order to gain an understanding of the Lithuanian language by ear.

During the sessions, participants have the opportunity to actively participate in discussions on business, social and everyday issues.

The course includes exercises and assignments to help you better prepare for real-life communication situations.

From 2026, a new version of the Law on the State Language requires employees to serve customers and provide information in Lithuanian. Requirements vary by profession:

  • A1–A2 (Basic / Category I): salespeople, customer service staff, waiters, taxi drivers, hairdressers, and similar service workers
  • B1 (Category II): school staff, social workers, nurses, cultural institution employees
  • B2 (Category III): civil servants, teachers, aviation professionals, heads of institutions

Group courses are held in small groups of up to 6 people with a fixed schedule of two lessons per week and include 30-sessions.

Individual courses are fully personalised — the schedule, pace, and content are tailored entirely to your needs.

If you value structure and peer practice, choose a group course. If you need flexibility or have specific goals, an individual course is the better fit.

The Skrivanek Training Academy certificate confirms the course completed and the language level reached — however, it is not a state-recognised certificate and does not fulfil the legal language requirements.

To meet the requirements of the Lithuanian State Language Law, foreigners must pass the official exam at the National Agency of Education (NSA). The Skrivanek course is designed to give you the best possible preparation for that exam — which is why 90% of our students pass on the first try.
