\u201cMy path in IT started at school \u2014 with the school mathematics. From the sixth grade, I participated in math olympiads, and I was lucky that my first teacher was my father, who passed on to me his love for this subject. The teachers who prepared their students for olympiads were like gods to me \u2014 it was then that I first realized the vital role they play. We must work with school teachers, support them, share modern methodologies, and recognize the very best. Mathematics is the queen of the sciences \u2014 it shapes thinking and fosters creativity. If children learn to be creative through math, they will be creative in tech, physics, chemistry, business \u2014 in anything. That\u2019s why we at SoftServe support math teachers \u2014 because we believe the future of the industry starts in school,\u201d<\/em> \u2013 said Taras Kytsmey<\/strong>, co-founder, SoftServe.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

According to the international PISA 2022 study, only 58% of Ukrainian school students reached the baseline level of mathematical literacy. The gap between Ukrainian students and their peers from OECD countries is equivalent to approximately one and a half years of schooling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the latest results of the National Multi-Subject Test (NMT) showed that the average math score among Ukrainian students was 132.5 out of 200. Despite these challenges, Ukraine has a strong tradition in mathematics education \u2014 our students have repeatedly won medals at the International Mathematical Olympiad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
