10th International Schoolteachers Festival bids farewell

The forum at Yelabuga Institute attracted over 500 professionals from different countries.

While delivering her closing speech, Institute Director Yelena Merzon noted, “We, the team of Yelabuga Institute, love this project and always prepare to the best of our ability. We are proud of creating this celebration atmosphere for our dear participants.”

During the three days, the most active contributors were noted. In particular, the title of the most energetic participant went to Landysh Sedova, a teacher of Russian language and literature from Nizhnekamsk, Tatarstan, Russia. She also received the grand prix of the festival and was awarded with a certificate for a resort vacation.

Andrey Konovalov, Head of the Section for Science and Information of Ufa Municipal Administration, was awarded by a diploma and will be reimbursed for his trip to the next year’s – eleventh – forum in Yelabuga.

Ms. Sedova reflected on her days at the event, “Teachers are the central figures at the festival, surrounded by care and attention and spending time with best practitioners of the country and the world at master classes and workshops. This live communication cannot be replaced by anything else. Those who have come here once always return, because it’s only the Yelabuga Institute’s people who give this kind of respect to educators.”
