Peter Reznikov has dedicated his entire professional life to excellence in
education. After graduating from Moscow State Linguistic University in 1991, he
was invited to work in the UK as a teacher of Russian and in the same year he
opened his educational consultancy PRINCE (Peter Reznikov International Centre
for Education) which, for more than 25 years, has been helping children from all
over the world gain access to the UK’s leading private schools, colleges and
universities. Throughout his 25 year career in British education, Peter has
taught in various private and state schools teaching both boys and girls. In
1998 he became the Head of the Russian Department at Eton College, the first
Russian national to do so in the prestigious school’s 575 year history. In his
17 years at the helm of the Russian department at Eton (1998-2015) the number of
students studying Russian rose from just 13 to 130. More than 50 of them
successfully gained a place at Oxford and Cambridge Universities, as well as
other leading Universities in the UK, USA, France, Holland and Germany. Peter
also worked for the London Examination Board (currently EDEXCEL) for over 10
years, starting as a script-marker and becoming a Principal Examiner setting
papers and overseeing the marking teams, as well as monitoring the overall
quality and comparability of the GCSE and A-level Russian examinations which are
widely used in the UK and in British schools abroad. Peter is the author of a
number of Russian teaching materials and articles on Russian language,
literature and cinema. He has co-authored several Russian text-books which are
widely used by teachers and students in the UK and abroad. He has made
appearances on Russian and British television, Internet, radio and other
mainstream media sources on a variety of educational issues. He actively follows
the rapidly-changing world of educational thinking and policy, regularly visits
different schools, colleges and Universities in the United Kingdom and other
countries and his PRINCE continues to provide educational services to people
from over 20 countries.
