Justina Aleknavičienė

Justina was born and raised in Kaunas, but after finishing school she moved to Vilnius to study French philology and pedagogy. During her studies she realized one important truth: you get as much as you put in. That’s why she made the most of every opportunity – from active involvement in the student council to participating in an Erasmus program in France.


That experience became the most memorable of all – Justina not only discovered a different culture and its people, but also realized how often we rely on stereotypes that don’t always reflect reality. Today, she strives to share both her academic and cultural knowledge with her students, encouraging them to think broader and understand that not everything is written in textbooks – sometimes, you need to look deeper.

She follows the principle that everything starts with ourselves. First, we need to change our mindset and strive for self-improvement. After all, the most important thing is to become better than your own past self!
