English Language Institute Overview

LCC is active far beyond our campus. We believe that LCC offers quality English language instruction for people of all walks of life who want to learn English in a professional and positive atmosphere.

First, each semester, over 100 students come to our campus for English language classes. Adult professionals and secondary school students attend evening classes to improve their English proficiency. We offer classes for all levels of English. Second, LCC supports English language teachers in the regional public schools by offering pedagogical seminars for teachers twice a year. These seminars bring together teachers for their professional development. In addition, July is a very busy month; we host a Summer Language Institute on our Klaipėda campus. Over 300 students come from several countries to spend the month living in the dormitories and learning English. Meanwhile, we also run similar Summer Language programs with our partners in Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
