About
Olympiad Mathematics has shaped my path from the start. I was admitted to the Faculty of Mathematics at Moscow State University without entrance exams, following distinctions in competitions including the Sharygin Geometry Olympiad and Moscow Mathematical Olympiad.
Today, I am the founder and lead Olympiad Maths coach at Exact Science, where I work with students from their first steps in problem solving through to UKMT, JMO, SMC and BMO level. I also coach Olympiad Mathematics at Westminster School in London.
I founded Exact Science to build a more complete environment for ambitious young mathematicians, combining small-group and individual teaching with structured practice and competition pathways. Alongside the teaching programme, I created Problems.cc for mathematical problem solving and practice, and Olympiads.co.uk to help students and families navigate competitions and opportunities.
Before focusing on Exact Science, I worked as a Data Scientist and Quantitative Developer. That background still influences how I think about education, technology and building better tools for learning, but Olympiad Mathematics remains at the centre of what I do.
Courses
Ages 8+, 12+, 16+
Olympiad Mathematics
Join our Olympiad Maths training for ambitious students. Build skills in key topics like algebra, geometry, and combinatorics while practising with real past papers and simulated challenges.
Curriculum Mathematics
A complete maths course for exam success. Strengthen core skills, tackle advanced topics, and prepare for school, GCSE, or A-Level maths exams with confidence.
Geometry
This course encompasses a range of Geometry topics such as coordinate and spatial geometry, introductory trigonometry, angles, parallel lines, congruent and similar triangles, polygons, circles, the Pythagorean Theorem, and more. Emphasis will be placed on reinforcing Algebra skills and enhancing critical thinking through problem-solving in both mathematical and real-world contexts.
Coding in Python
Start coding with Python – a simple yet powerful language for beginners. Learn to write programs, solve problems, and automate tasks through hands-on lessons.
Introduction to Financial Mathematics
Financial Mathematics is a course that teaches students the mathematical principles and techniques needed to understand and analyze financial data. It is an essential subject for anyone interested in pursuing a career in finance or economics, as it helps students develop skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, and data analysis.
