About Me

CURRENT MISSION

any kind of teaching is the best way to change the world

ABOUT ME

Hello,
I'm a 33 years old molecular biologist and a biology teacher from Moscow. I worked in the Institute of Molecular Genetics, Russian Academy of Sciences, and also taught gifted children who are interested in biology in a very interesting school called "Intellectual". Now I'm a part of a brilliant team of professionals who create a brand new international, bilingual school near Moscow called "Letovo School".
I absolutely love travelling, especially around Europe.
I can show you some cool places in Moscow if you wish!

PHILOSOPHY

live and let live
