Pavel(Paul) Volkov
Curriculum Designer in Mathematics Education, focused on the Mathematical Circle Approach
I studied at a top physics-maths school in Moscow and graduated from MPEI (Radio Engineering Faculty, Class of ’85) – the best place for my field back then! Proud Lenin Scholarship holder, too.
My maths mentors? Legends!
In school: Ivan Ilyich Tkachenko & Alexander Yakovlevich Khalamayzer.
At university: Mikhail Leonidovich Krasnov & Stanislav Ivanovich Pokhozhaev – yes,
the same authors of those famous maths books! And yes, they gave me straight A’s! ✨
Thanks to them, I bring deep knowledge (and love!) of maths and physics into every lesson.
I tutor:
School-level & advanced Maths, Geometry, and Physics
Prep for all Maths Russian exams
Prep for UK exams (7+, 8+, 11+, 13+ GCSE, . A-Level, STEP / MAT / TMUA
International exams: SAT, IGCSE, IB (all levels) – in English too!
Olympiad training
I've taught students from the UK, USA, Norway, and beyond – over 7,000 online lessons
and counting.
Extra fun facts:
Studied Japanese in Okayama, Japan
Attended RCSH teacher courses in 2018
My mission: Help students truly enjoy maths and physics, not just “get through it.” Many stay
with me until university entry – and some become Olympiad winners!
Happy to help – let’s learn with curiosity and a smile! ��
