Artur Proidakov

Location: Kyiv

School: MIDGARD

Subject: Ukrainian language and literature

Under Artur’s mentorship, students from small towns pass the External Independent Evaluation with 190+ points, after the first year at the university they find a job in SMM or copywriting and involuntarily fall in love with modern Ukrainian literature. During classes, he conducts surveys on the Telegram channel, teaches students SMM management, and creates a pleasant microclimate for learning through games. Artur’s dream is to build a cultural bridge between people from the West and the East of Ukraine with the help of interregional travels. He is convinced that removing barriers between Ukrainians will make it easier to counter outside propaganda.

“First of all, for me, the teacher is the person who opens the door to the student into the world of adult life not divided into black and white, where there are dangers and obstacles. The task of the school is to help modern teenagers to sort themselves out, to find understanding with others and be ready to overcome troubles, to move forward to success despite any difficulties.”
