LaTeX is Cool and Not So Hard to Learn

- says Danil Fedorovykh, HSE senior lecturer and promoter of LaTeX. After a few years of teaching LaTex in Russian both in person and on-line Danil started to deliver LaTeX in English

LaTeX is professional publishing system for scholars. The course on LaTeX that Danil has been teaching for several years helped hundreds of students, researchers and lecturers to learn how to make publications and presentation slides in a highly professional manner. In 2014,“Introduction to LaTeX” became one of the first Russian-language courses at Coursera.org and remains the only massive open online course (MOOC) in LaTeX in the world.


Danil delivered a great course, enjoyed by graduate students and professors of Universidad Autónoma de Madrid’s Faculty of Economics and Business Studies. Thanks Danil, thanks HSE, thanks Erasmus+!

In spring 2016 Danil taught a short course “Introduction to LaTeX” for students and professors of Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, one of the leading Spanish universities. This was made possible through the Erasmus+ teaching staff mobility scholarship allocated by Alliance of 4 Universities and thanks to Dr. Miguel Buñuel, who kindly invited Danil to UAM and assumed the organization from the Spanish side.
