Moscow State School 57
- rsj_hn 5y agoI posted this since I remembered in grad school I had two alums from this high school (or gymnasium) and they used to tell me of all the mathematical resources they had -- evening lectures by famous mathematicians, intense oral exams on topics in mathematical physics, etc. Recently I was looking at Nekrasov's bio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikita_Nekrasov https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikita_Nekrasov) and he, too is an alum. I think it might be of interest to look at all the famous mathematicians and physicists that graduated from this school.
- jwilber 5y agoOn math courses: “ Individual approach lies in the core of the specialized math classes' educational process. Teaching the specialized math classes isn't limited to faculty staff – additional instructors, many of whom are volunteering alumni, are involved in order to give every student necessary attention. Rather than having to learn the material from a textbook, students discover it through solving sequences of problems. Solutions are presented by the students to the instructors in one-on-one discussions.”
