Tuymaada International Olympiad Insights
the experiments and conducting repeated approbation works,
thus greatly contributing to the Olympiad.
Amongst chemistry teachers who trained Olympiad
participants there are Natalya Duraeva, Galina Krivoshapkina,
Sofia Dichenko, Lyutsia Larionova, Elena Michurina, Lidia
Shirokikh, Zoya Nepomnyaschaya.
More than 350 school students have participated in
Tuymaada Olympiad in chemistry, including our constant rivals
from Romania (the Romanian National Team, the Tudor Vianu
National College of Computer Science and the Gib Mihaescu
National College), Kazakhstan (the Kazakhstan National
Team, the Zhautykov Republican Specialized Physics and
Mathematics Secondary Boarding School, teams from Astana,
Almaty, Pavlodar, Aktobe, Taldykorgan), Mexico, Mongolia, as
well as Moscow, Tatarstan, Novosibirsk, Magnitogorsk, Barnaul,
Irkutsk, Amur Oblast, and Khabarovsk Krai.
It should be noted that with each new year Tuymaada
Olympiad is becoming ever more prestigious and popular.
In Romania and Kazakhstan, the status of the Olympiad has
grown so much, that the winners of our Olympiad enter their
country's universities without exams to study chemistry. Every
year, a large number of olympiad winners from different
countries participate in Tuymaada Olympiad. The competition
is sometimes very fierce in this regard.
As a rule, the "olympiad students" choose their future careers
according to the studied olympiad subjects. Our Olympiad
participants chose chemistry as their profession too, and most of
them achieved significant success. Sergey Osipov from Yakutsk
School No. 2 was the first winner of Tuymaada Olympiad in
chemistry. He is a student of Natalya Durayeva, a well-known
chemistry teacher in the Republic. Sergey graduated from the
Bauman Moscow State Technical University and completed
an internship in Scotland. He currently lives abroad. One of
the first prize-winners, graduate of Yakutsk School No. 31
Dr. Vladimir Sharoyko, Doctor of Science in Biology, PhD, used
to be a research fellow at the Lund University Diabetes, Sweden.
Now, he is a research fellow at the Institute of Chemistry,
Saint-Petersburg State University. One of the first Olympiad
prize-winners Anastasia Sivtseva, who graduated from the
Republican Lyceum Boarding School and the postgraduate
training program of the Faculty of Chemistry at Moscow State
University, now works at the Larionov Institute of Physical and
Technical Problems of the North of the Siberian Branch of the
RAS; Nikolay Zhirkov, a graduate of the Republican Lyceum
Boarding School, is now a senior teacher at the Department
of Chemistry, Institute of Natural Sciences, North-Eastern
Federal University. Dr. Grigory Andreev, Candidate of Science
in Chemistry, is a chemical laboratory chief at Almazy Anabara
OJSC. Grigory created the laboratory by himself, convincing the
company management of the need for chemical analysis in the
diamond industry. Dmitry Neustroev is a chemical technologist
at Surgutneftegaz OJSC. Artyom Kuznetsov and Fyodor Ivanov
work at the National Medical Centre and Almazy Anabaara
OJSC, respectively.
The Olympiad competitors of different years: Vladislav
Sivtsev, Mikhail Popov, I. Zakharov, Viktoria Sukulova, Khristina
Sidorova, Anastasia Stratovich, Arkady Kupryakov graduated
from the Department of Natural Sciences of Novosibirsk
State University; Viktor Reshetnikov, Sergey Pavlov, Georgy
Emelianov are students of the Lomonosov Moscow State
University; Syuzanna Parfenova, Denis Kravtsov are students
of the Institute of Chemistry of St. Petersburg State University;
Valentin Atlasov is a student of the Gubkin Russian State
University of Oil and Gas.
Every year, the level of tasks keeps rising, and the innovative
potential of the Olympiad movement is becoming greater.
When training students for olympiads, teachers of chemistry,
and methodological commissions use the most advanced
educational technologies. This makes olympiads one of the
most innovative educational events.
