During classes with Birutė, she expresses herself not only as a teacher, but a true mentor. Birutė was very attentive to my needs, to my learning pace and style. Classes were so much fun not only with a variety of learning tasks, but also full of life experience, which helped me in broadening my horizons. Birutė is a great, demanding professional and also a fun mentor, so I definitely recommend her!

Birutė has been an invaluable part of my journey to discovering the Lithuanian language when I attended the Lithuanian Language Summer School at the Vytautas Magnus University in 2021. She successfully created an engaging and interactive environment, tailored to multicultural and individual needs. Her passion for teaching has boosted my motivation, leading to significant learning progress in this short time. I highly recommend Birutė to anyone interested in learning a new language. Ačiū, Birutė!

I had the pleasure to be Birutė’s student during an intensive winter course. She is a very attentive, skilled and prepared teacher, who explains with great detail every topic and pays a lot of attention to every student, making sure there are no doubts and questions. Also, she doesn't mind repeating herself over and over for her students to learn a topic properly. I proudly recommend her.

The biggest challenge was learning Lithuanian language with so many different people from all around the world, but our teacher Birute made everything so much easier. The class was always educational, practical and memorable. One of the most funny moments from class was ordering pizza using Lithuanian language for the whole class and apparently we were talking to our teacher’s brother.
Studying by singing was the most memorable experience. In fact, after so many years I still remember every Lithuanian song that we were singing in our morning classes. In addition, these classes gave me education, friends, freedom, and independence, that’s what I am thankful for.

My Lithuanian language lesson experience was extremely positive and contributed significantly to my ongoing language development. The instructor's approach was engaging and effectively addressed my current level of proficiency. The course content I found both relevant and intellectually stimulating. It focused on our ability to speak at A1 level and learn certain phrases.
One of the most valuable aspects of the course was the opportunity to bring the language to life, participate in discussions, and practice writing. This allowed me to actively practice using my newly learned knowledge and receive constructive feedback on my progress. I believe that the patterns I learned in the course will reinforce my understanding and improve my fluency.
Overall, I am very pleased with my language lesson experience. My instructor's expertise and engaging teaching methods, combined with a focus on practical application, significantly enhanced my learning journey. I look forward to continuing my education and further improving my language skills.
