Reply to comment by RevanTheHunter in Lithuania should phase out Russian language teaching - president's adviser by Interrete

English is taught pretty early in most countries as it is recognized as an international language - I'm Lithuanian and all of the jobs I've had post school have required at least some fluency in English, with other languages being considered as bonuses.
To clarify, it being taught in kindergarten is not the norm - most people only start learning it in 2nd grade.

My cousin's regular public kindegarten has English lessons and he's not yet 5 years old. When I was in kindegarten over 20 years ago my mom allowed me to take an English class once a week too. It's not uncommon.
