a Young family of teachers of English Paul came to the taiga village of gold miners Dambuki in 1973 after the distribution of the Annunciation College. However, father was not stakes – the first years he taught history and geography. Lived in a wooden beam with bedbugs. Mom was already pregnant with my older brother Dimka.
a year Dambuki went under water after the construction of the first-born of the far Eastern hydropower – Zeyskaya HPP. When I came to the Amga, wrote an essay on Rasputin and called it “the Amur mater”. The majority of gambacini moved to the new village of riverside, built on the banks of the Zeya reservoir. And my parents too. There I was born. The parents were gone at work, so I grew up on the back row in the English building. Pupils take care of me, supplied the forbidden candy. Now many of them are already grandparents, and I still perceive as a child.
Father retired in the early 2000s. But even after that, for the whole village remained a “Director” – he is ten years led our school. When two and a half years ago, he was gone, to carry it the whole town came. Even former bullies, whom he drove for cigarettes and truancy.
the Mother was rescued by the school and children. When the crowd of students rushing to her on the street to hug or alumni come to visit us until midnight, remember school life – I understand that I have the best parents and they are the best Teachers.
About the retirement. Nights thinking about how to make the mother understood and felt her love, remember. And invented. Called and wrote her favorite students from different editions – have been asked to record a video and say a few kind words. “Our beloved Raisa Pavlovna” – that started these videos from all over the country and from abroad. Touching, grateful, cheerful, sincere. Surgeons and nurses, colonels, teachers and electricians, sellers, and miners, railroad workers and truckers – Mama’s disciples and children.
Mom sometimes repents: “We all power were given to other children, and you have grown yourself!” – I just smile. When the students sent me their videos, roared and revised them again and again. Asked his history teacher Svetlana Ivanovna bataevo to make the clip. It was included on farewell party in school. Roared all teachers. Mom called in tears: “Lena, thank you. I now know that all of those 47 years was not in vain.”
Olga Rusanova, English teacher:
“Favorite Raisa Pavlovna, thank you instilled in us a love of language that I now teach. Today, I am your colleague and I’m very proud of it.”
Alex Slatsky, entrepreneur:
“Almost fifty years have drank the blood of such boobies as we do. How many had the patience… And now not a month goes by that I don’t inwas spominal you. Feel like such a fool, and so regret that I did not learn English”.
