Erika Vaškialytė

Erika discovered her passion for education when, as a student, she substituted the information technology teacher at the school she graduated from. Although she dreamed of becoming a programmer, she has been working in education sector for more than 15 years. After obtaining a bachelor’s degree in computer science engineering and pedagogy at the Kaunas University of Technology, she developed her competencies in the Educational Leadership study program at the ISM University of Management and Economics. For the past four years she has been managing a private academy for non-formal education. Constantly looking for ways to enrich the educational process with digital technologies, encouraging students’ innovativeness, creativity and entrepreneurship.

Erika believes that every student is gifted, and it is the teacher’s duty to help discover this.
