[edutex] Introduction

[July Tikhonov]

Greetings!

1. My name is July Tikhonov (ru: Юлий), I live in Moscow. I work in a high
school that is specialised in math (AESC MSU / Kolmogorov school). I also
occasionally work on math olympiads and do research.

2. I have been teaching math to high school students for 7 years, including
regular school curriculum and training for math olympiads.

3. I work with LaTeX for about the same 7 years. From taking lecture notes
to various reports in university to articles. And many small lists of
problems for school students. I sort of can program in LaTeX, although I'm
still sometimes puzzled by its behaviour.

4. Just want to see where it goes.

5. I can provide feedback on work in English or Russian; write materials in
Russian; draft something in English. I also know Python, but I never
touched web services like Django before.
