This is the photo of my supervisor Ramilya R. Tichonova. She is a
teacher of English. According to the survey (see Students) English
is one of the most popular subjects among the students of my
class. In our studies we use Longman's 'Opportunities text-books.
They are full of interesting articles and useful information
(for example, Aborigines-the native Australians, Britain today,
the Mystery of Wales, etc.). It is easy to learn new words, expressions
and grammar because a specially developed contrastive approach to
grammar makes language learning more focused and effective.
Opportunities takes language learning seriously. Our English
lessons are interesting and useful.
This is the photo of our teacher of mathematics. His name is Boris V. Kozulin.
He is a very experienced teacher. At the lessons we work hard, and our teacher
understands that from time to time we need a rest.He has a good sense of humor.
He likes to joke, and the students like his jokes very much. Look at him once again.
He is well-fed and red-haired.So, his nickname is 'Orange'. I think he knows
about it. But he does not mind. On the wall near the class of mathematics there is
a wall newspaper called "Orange news". It is full ofhumor, comics and funny stories.
He participates in a television project "Teleschool", which you can see on "NTV+" channel. He organizes the "Orange cup" football (see Events)
and the tick-tack-toe tournaments. He is also the captain of the Teacher's team in Brain Ring game, which is held on the Day of labor
(see Events).
"Then sprang Prince Igor
To his golden stirrup
And rode forth over the open plain'.
Have you ever heard about 'The lay of the warfare waged by Igor'which was written
as long as in 1187 ? This manuscriptis a genuine epic poem enjoying such a long life.
Have you ever heard such names as A. Pushkin, A. Blok, F. Dostoevsky, I. Bunin,
R. Bradbury, Moliere, etc.? Of course, you have heard !
We read the works of great Russian and foreign writers and learn much at our lessons
of literature from our teacher Valentina G. Ugrechelidze. Our lessons are exciting.
Our teacher teachesus to analyze and understand the works of different authors
from different countries better.
This is the photo of our teacher of physics. His name is Vladimir
V. Shchekodin.
We like to study physics. At the lessons the teacher gives us unusual tasks and
demonstrates different physical phenomena with the help of various experiments.
For example, 'An egg in the bottle'. If you want to demonstrate how strong the
pressure of the air is, take a hard-boiled egg and a clean milk bottle. Take
off the shell and put the egg on the opening of the bottle. Try to push the
egg into the bottle. The egg will not go in because the air in the bottle cannot
come out. The pressure of the air in the bottle will not allow the egg to go in.
If you throw a burning match into the bottle and put the egg on the opening,
the egg will go in the bottle. Can you explain the phenomenon? I will help you.
The fire uses up the oxygen in the bottle. Then the pressure of the
outer air on the egg pushes it into the bottle.
Look at the blackboard. Is
this flower beautiful? It was drawn
by one of our students. Now you can guesswhat lesson we
are having. You are right. This is biology. Our teacher is Julia A.
Sevruk. In theseventh form we study botany. We have already
learned much about the structure of plants useful and
harmful for people. We draw pictures of different flowers, trees,
vegetables, fruits, etc. In thesummer we collected a herbarium.
In my opinion, biology is one of the most interesting subjects.
This is the photo of our teacher of informatics. Her name is Helen G.
Sutotskaya. students of our class like these
lessons because they help us to operate
the computer properly. We learn different programs
and languages. Now we study Basic.
Here is an example of a computer program
of conversion of miles into kilometers in Basic:
20 PRINT "Miles to kilometers"
30 DEF FNKILO(M)=M*1.6093
50 PRINT "Distance in miles?"
60 INPUT D
70 PRINT D; "Miles are equal to";
80 PRINT FNKILO(D);
"kilometers"

At my gymnasium we study two foreign languages. The
first language is English. All students learn it. The second
languages are French and German. Students can choose
one of them. On the photos you can see the teacher of
French Anna I. Rogova (bottom) and the teacher of German
(right) Taisia G. Spirina.
