About the education
How do the lessons work?
Live lessons online
Lessons are held via “Microsoft Teams” in small groups (up to 12 children) twice a week (on a weekday after school and on weekend mornings or evenings).
Engaging, interactive teaching
We teach without textbooks or workbooks, drawing on a program specially developed by professional teachers. Lessons are interactive and adapted to a remote format. Three times a year, students take part in special sessions with popular Lithuanian writers, creators, and folk artists.
Independent assignments
After lessons, children receive independent-work assignments designed so that they can complete them on their own, without their parents’ help.
Progress
How progress is assessed
Children’s progress can be tracked in the TAMO online gradebook; teachers leave comments after each lesson, and twice a year an individual progress report is prepared for each child, with parents invited to a follow-up conversation. Progress is discussed with parents only.
2× per year – student progress review with the teacher
10 months – the length of the academic year

We live in Norway, but moving back to Lithuania is only a matter of time. Karalienės Mortos mokykla was the best choice for us – the children follow the same curriculum as in Lithuania, receive grades, and progress is discussed with parents. I know that when we return, it will be much easier for our son to settle back in.

After relocating to Canada, we immediately started looking for structured, high-quality Lithuanian language lessons for our daughter. Karalienės Mortos mokykla impressed us with its professional approach – this is a real school, not just an after-school club. Our daughter now reads fluently, writes correctly, and enthusiastically tells her friends about Lithuania.

When we moved to London, the biggest challenge was maintaining the children’s Lithuanian. In the first year, I taught them myself — we read in the evenings and spoke only Lithuanian at home. But I realised that wasn’t enough. I noticed that once English started to dominate daily life, Lithuanian deteriorated very quickly.
I heard about Karalienės Mortos mokykla through a Lithuanian parents’ group. We gave it a try, and within the first month it was clear that the teachers were true professionals and that the children received plenty of individual attention. The homework is not excessive – straightforward, but consistent. It matters to me that lessons don’t become a chore for the children, and here they actually enjoy them.
What I value most is that we see real results. For us, as a family planning to return to Lithuania in a few years, it is especially important that the programmes are thought through down to the last detail.

We felt that local community classes lacked a systematic approach, so we began looking for more in-depth language development. Karalienės Mortos mokykla appealed to us straight away – small classes, professional teachers.
Over the course of a year, our daughter made an incredible leap – from everyday conversational Lithuanian to a significantly more fluent command of the language, noticeably more accurate writing, and much more confident reading. The greatest reward came when, during a holiday in Lithuania, our daughter confidently engaged with her grandparents on her own and delighted them with her knowledge. It is a truly priceless investment.

We have been living in the US for seven years. We always speak Lithuanian at home, but our son’s language keeps slipping – his friends speak English, he thinks in English.
In the first year, he attended a local Lithuanian Saturday school. A wonderful community, and I look back on those times fondly, but academically it was too simple. The group included both five-year-olds and twelve-year-olds; they sang songs and did drawings. For a son who could already read, it was boring.
I found Karalienės Mortos mokykla through Austėja’s podcast. I was immediately drawn to the professional approach to education, and over two years we have seen enormous progress. The teachers have a certain magic – even grammar seems interesting to him.
I am immensely grateful to this school. It helps my son maintain his connection to his roots.

When I suggested to my husband that we enrol our son in Lithuanian language lessons, his first question was whether it would put too much pressure on the child. But a trial lesson at Karalienės Mortos mokykla changed everything – our son came out of it simply fired up to learn.

Living in Germany and raising a daughter in an international environment, I hesitated for a long time about whether Lithuanian lessons were worthwhile – I didn’t want to overload her. A friend whose children have been attending Karalienės Mortos mokykla for two years told me: ‘Just try it for one month.’ That month turned into a year, and we intend to carry on.
The school’s philosophy genuinely works. The children don’t feel like passive listeners – they communicate freely and openly, both with each other and with the teacher. It’s engaging, even though it does require giving up time on a weekend and isn’t always easy.

For us, as a family planning to return to Lithuania, it was important that this was a proper school and not just a club. The children receive grades, are registered in the system, and the teacher regularly reviews their progress. The teachers’ professionalism is evident not only in their knowledge, but in how they deliver the material.

It matters to us that our children know who they are and where their roots lie. That is why it is wonderful that alongside Lithuanian language they can also study Lithuanian history and geography. The content is carefully and thoughtfully prepared. During lessons the children also make Lithuanian friends who are likewise living abroad – friends they can meet twice a year at the organised gatherings, where all those who wish and are able come together in Lithuania.

There were moments when our son wanted to quit the lessons. At that point, the teacher encouraged him to keep going. She has a motivating effect on the children – she gives a great deal of individual attention and every child feels seen.

We chose Karalienės Mortos mokykla for practical reasons – it is simply convenient.

The homework is engaging. The children are happy.

The program is designed for children who already have at least some basic Lithuanian. A child who speaks no Lithuanian at all wouldn’t yet be able to fully take part in lessons.
