Maria Golovanova shared her experience on participation in the contest. According to her, the republican round of the competition greatly helped her to enter the top five finalists. “The republican round of the competition was similar to the federal one, it was a kind of rehearsal, so it was easier to prepare,”- Maria Golovanova noted. The Kazan teacher noted that the tests at the federal level were not simple, for two weeks the participants showed their abilities. “It's like I came from another planet, I’m still very impressed, it was very busy and active days”, -she said.
The head of the city asked about the characters of schoolchildren today. “Children need love and attention, probably even more now than before, because parents are often busy and work a lot”, - Maria Golovanova replied.
The head of the Department of Education of Kazan Irek Rizvanov also attended the meeting.
For information, 83 teachers representing all Russian regions competed in Russia Teacher of the Year contest, 15 of them competed for qualifying the superfinal.
