Why Latvian Easy

Learning that doesn't feel like learning

We don't teach the language “for a grade”. We teach it so that, in the shortest possible time, you can confidently sit an exam, order a coffee or run a meeting.

Focused on your goal

Naturalisation, work, your child's school or client negotiations — the programme is built around your goal.

Speak from the first lesson

No “London is the capital”. Simple, living phrases you can use today.

Real teachers

Not “talking textbooks”, but guides into the culture and the modern language. We'll find the one who clicks with you.

A predictable result

A clear method, regular progress checks and preparation for the real VISC exams.

Comfortable throughout

A flexible schedule and a convenient online platform. And if you fancy in person — we're waiting in the centre of Riga.

Latvian language courses

Latvian — for work, integration, an exam, or your child. From first words to citizenship.

Diāna Karpova — founder of Latvian Easy

Founder of the school
Who is behind the school

Diāna decided to do it differently

A teacher of Latvian with 10 years of experience. A blogger trusted by thousands. The face of the school — and the main reason Latvian Easy sounds different.

“I went through the boring textbooks and the fear of speaking myself. So I created a school where the language is not a subject but a pleasure. We built a team that makes people fall in love with Latvian, and we developed a system that delivers results without rote learning.”

“We teach the way we would have wanted to be taught ourselves — with support, humour and respect for your time.”

Not the way you were taught

Remember how you were taught languages at school or university. We do the exact opposite.

Stories from our students

An honest “before → after” format. No clickbait, no rehearsed praise.

Before After
“We moved from Belarus — without an A2 certificate there was no way to move forward. The school believed in us more than we did ourselves.”
An A2 certificate on the first attempt: 4 months of intensive group lessons and 5 duet lessons with their spouse. Now their colleagues come to study “with Arina specifically”.

A2 group + duet · passed first time
Before After
“I left the exam certain I had completely failed the speaking part.”
The A2 exam passed at 85%: speaking and listening — 93% each. “The course tasks matched the exam 100%.”

You ask — we answer

Questions and answers

We've gathered what people ask before signing up. If you can't find the answer you need, message us — we'll help with anything.

How do I find out my level if I don't know where to start?
There's no need to worry about this. Before almost any course we check your level with a diagnostic and place you at the right step — from A1 to C1. Want to know your level in advance — message us and we'll arrange a test. It commits you to nothing.
How long does it take to prepare for the A2 exam?
On average 3–5 months with regular lessons, if you are in a language environment. The exact time depends on your starting level and how regularly you study on your own.
Can I learn Latvian from scratch if I speak only English?
Yes. We have programmes for English-speaking learners, starting from the very first words. The materials are modern, with living vocabulary that people actually use — not textbooks from a past era.
How do I claim back part of my tuition costs through a tax return?
Tuition at Latvian Easy can be included in your eligible expenses (attaisnotie izdevumi) in your VID tax return. We provide a certificate and payment documents. From 2025 the refund is calculated at a rate of 25.5% within a limit of €600 per person per year — up to €153 back. It also works for a child's tuition, and any amount above the limit carries over to the next three years.
How is a school course different from a private tutor?
A systematic approach. We have a single method, a programme built around your goal and progress checks all the way through. If a teacher isn't the right fit, we'll replace them without losing momentum: your lesson history and programme are kept. A good tutor can deliver results, but first you have to find one and test them on yourself. A school removes that risk.
Are the lessons suitable if I don't live in Latvia?
Yes, most of our students learn online. All our formats (one-to-one, pair and group lessons) are available from anywhere in the world. In person is optional — in the centre of Riga.
Can we pay for staff training with VAT invoices?
Yes — corporate rates and full paperwork. A contract, VAT invoices and progress reports for HR. We tailor the format to your team — from a few people to a whole department.
