Enrika Latanauskaitė
In 2026, I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Primary Education, and I continue to develop my knowledge and skills through further studies in Childhood Education and various professional training courses. Alongside my studies and professional development, I also work as a nanny and private tutor. These roles give me the opportunity to regularly interact with children of different ages and gain a deeper understanding of their individual needs, learning pace, and strengths.
I also graduated from music school, so music is an important part of my life. In my free time, I enjoy playing the piano.
Children have been a part of my life since I was very young, so connecting with them has always felt natural to me. Working as a nanny and tutor has strengthened this connection even further, teaching me patience, flexibility, responsibility, and the importance of approaching each child individually.
Children’s sincerity, curiosity, and ability to find joy in the little things inspire me every day and remind me that learning goes both ways. I am happy not only to teach children but also to learn from them – from their openness, creativity, courage to ask questions, and eagerness to explore the world.
My curiosity extends beyond my professional life. I love travelling, discovering new places, exploring my surroundings, and meeting people with different backgrounds and experiences. I am also interested in psychology and educational literature, which helps me better understand children, their emotional world, the learning process, and my own role as a teacher. Continuous development, broadening my horizons, and growing alongside my students are especially important to me.
In my work, I aim to create a safe, welcoming, and respectful environment where every child feels seen, heard, and accepted. I value not only students’ academic progress but also their emotional well-being, self-confidence, and motivation to learn.
I strive to get to know each child, recognise their strengths, and provide opportunities for them to discover and develop their abilities. I believe that a teacher’s role is not simply to share knowledge, but also to help children grow into curious, independent, creative, and confident individuals.
