Lithuanian

I'm looking at a semester exchange to Lithuania. The courses I'm taking are in English but I'd like to get a grounding in the language before I go. Apart from Latvian what other languages does Lithuanian share origins with ? It seems completely different to all other languages within the region. I've studied a bit of Czech and found it not THAT difficult, but how does Lithuanian compare ? I hear it's a difficult language to master.

Thanks for the information. Yes, it seems that resources are scarce, even free online lessons seem limited in scope and vary with regards to things like pronunciation :/ Btw.. does anyone know about the similarities between Lithuanian and Czech/slavic grammar ?
