Our Team

Mikhail Mokrinskiy

Principal

Our main goal is to give motivated children access to the highest levels of academic knowledge, opportunities for all-round development and admission to top universities in Russia and abroad. I don’t like the idea of competing with neighbouring schools or the school’s ranking, district-wise. You should learn from your neighbours, what you should fight for is your own dream

Madlena Shaginyan

Head of Academics

What makes the education at Letovo unique is the fact that we develop skills. You may well forget the date of the Mongol invasion, but you will most definitely learn how to work with historical and critical sources of information. And that is what we call ‘skills for life’, which are vital for every person living in the 21st century

Larisa Korabelshikova

IB Coordinator

The International Baccalaureate (IB) is one of the few international programmes whose diploma is accepted by most universities throughout the world. Its educational model is built on the principles of humanistic psychology and is aimed at the holistic development of personality. I am a big proponent of this approach and I see the need to popularize this programme

Dmitry Schnol

Head of Mathematics Department

Doing mathematics is the experience of deriving enjoyment from overcoming a challenge. What happens during solving a mathematics problem is an important existential experience

Irina Lyamsheva

Head of Foreign Languages department

The combination of two educational models – those of the Russian and International Baccalaureate – opens up great possibilities for developing students’ abilities and talents, enables their fulfilment, to find themselves and simply their happiness

Grigoriy Saminskiy

Geography Teacher

The focus of geography is the interactions between humans. The variety of material studied allows students to draw on their own personal experiences, implement team projects and develop systematic thought processes. The main art of the teacher is to create a distinct image of the world and its parts within a student’s mind as well as teach students how to broaden and reconsider this image without assistance’

Vladimir Gurovits

Head of Computer science and Design department

Information Technology at school is a tool which gives students a new level of understanding while mastering other subjects. Key achievements in modern life are connected with this tool, among which are computational linguistics, bioinformatics, big data in elementary particle physics and implementing artificial intelligence in medicine
