What our students say
I really enjoyed the teaching style and appreciated how much time we spent on actual speaking practice. It made a real difference in my confidence.
I really enjoyed the classes — the lessons were interesting and the atmosphere was warm and friendly. I truly appreciate the effort Vaida put into every session and the support she gave us throughout the entire course.
The course had a great balance of grammar revision and real conversation practice. I wouldn't change a thing — everything was just right
The information was presented very clearly and in an easy-to-understand way. What I especially appreciated was that Rūta often used material about famous Lithuanians, Lithuanian traditions, customs, poems, and songs to explain grammar rules — it made the lessons genuinely interesting and gave me a much broader understanding of Lithuania and its culture.
I appreciated how the lessons focused on real everyday Lithuanian situations alongside the essentials of grammar — noun declension, word agreement in sentences, reading, and building simple sentences. It gave me a solid and practical foundation from the very start.
Thank you for organising the course — it was genuinely useful. We can now catch words and sentences in daily life and understand more of what our colleagues are saying. The atmosphere in the lessons was really good, and our teacher Vaida created a fun and supportive environment that made learning feel natural. The whole team effort was great too.
I liked the tasks — they were practical and focused on real speaking practice, which is exactly what I needed to feel more confident in Lithuanian.
Thank you for providing this opportunity and for all the effort and support from the whole team. I believe we gained more courage and genuinely enjoyed trying to speak Lithuanian — and that's largely thanks to our lecturer Vaida from Skrivanek, who guided us every step of the way throughout the course.
I really enjoyed the conversations with the teacher about Lithuanian culture and history — it made the lessons feel much more than just language learning. The lesson structure was clear and well-organised, and the dialogues were great for building real speaking confidence.
The lessons covered everything I needed — new vocabulary, grammar, and even Lithuanian history and culture. I'm happy with how the course was structured and would recommend it to anyone learning Lithuanian.
It was both useful and fascinating to dive into Lithuanian from scratch and hear how the language actually sounds in real life. I especially enjoyed discussing the origins and roots of words with Marytė, and the connections to other languages — that was genuinely interesting. If I could suggest one thing, it would be to spend a bit more time on independent vocabulary learning before the lesson, so class time could be used more for exercises and practice.
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.
