At the time of finishing school in Krasnoyarsk, Deni didn't really understand what he wanted to study at university. He tried the Faculty of Law at KSU University. However, the system of recitation and memorisation did not inspire him, and Deni went abroad.
This time, on the advice of his parents, he decided to try to study economics in Amsterdam. And he enrolled in the Social Sciences programme (Economics, International Relations, Finance), a one-year programme required before entering the first year.
Living in a different environment broadens your horizons and makes you think. A long-ripened interest in psychology is here in full force. The UK is one of the strongest countries to study it, and Deni decides to enrol there.
Transferring from Foundation Studies in Holland to Durham - a top British university, the next round after Oxbridge - is not a trivial task!
But, thanks to the expertise of our university expert Xenia and Deni's absolutely brilliant grades, it all worked out! He became a 1st year student. Hooray!
What's next?
The parents received a letter proclaiming that their son had been ranked in the top 10% of students at Durham University!!!! Durham is the Russell Group. It's the most prestigious.
And he didn't even go to a British school.
Impressive?
Such diligence is no accident: Deni' mum, plays a huge role in his life. Having a successful business and being very hard-working, she taught her son this from a young age.
Every evening she found the strength to communicate with him, to tell him how business is done, why it is important to study and work hard. She is a tireless mentor and teacher. She has worked and continues to work as a parent. The result of her righteous labours is evident!
It is not surprising that at the time of his admission to the Netherlands, Deni had an excellent command of English. Although the family had not originally planned such an enrolment.
What happened next?
In Durham, Deni studied psychology from a neurobiological point of view: he was interested in the workings of the brain. He graduated with a Distinction! It is very important to graduate from a British university with an honours degree, because all the others are ponderous, and there is no competitive advantage!
In his 2nd year, Deni found an internship, OWNED it. As it should be. After graduation he clearly understood his desires: and entered the University of Manchester to study Organisational Psychology (i.e. in the context of business) - this university is the leading UK university in this field
What next?
Deni passed all his exams in May, of course with top marks. He sent in his thesis at the beginning of September: 30% of his grade depends on it, and his diploma will be in winter. No one doubts that it will be with honours again!
I don't have a Master's degree yet, but I already have a job! Now Deni is living in Spain, but he is not beating his arse on beaches and yachts, he is looking for a job. He who seeks will always find a job. Whoever wants, will get! Deni was hired by a Moscow company and now he works online: https://www.instagram.com/neformat_clinic.
He also gives individual consultations. Highly recommended! His website: denizakriev.ru
