1. The Exceptional Student
National schools have the duty to serve average students.
As a result, standards are dropping and the most
promising students, out of boredom, lose their motivation
and are left underserved.
Stamford Polytechnic focuses on delivering the best
education for these gifted students. Our educational
system is not only reserved for the top 1% exceptional
minds but also for the upper 25% knowledge-thirsty
students that are neglected in other educational systems.
We base our selection on the student's desire to learn and
thirst for knowledge, not on their current level. Once the
student is selected, we immerse them in a focused,
accelerated program of learning to propel them to their
future goals, be it college, a career, winning competitions,
or just for the sake of knowledge.
Our Advantages
Stamford Polytechnic has a proven record of success. To
succeed with our methodology, all it takes for an ordinary
student is the will to learn.
Students learn in one year what they would cover in at
least two years in a standard school
We have mastered our field of competence up to the
University level and give students the benefit of our
knowledge and learning. A student will find endless
challenges and delve as deep as she desires in our
subjects, and our lessons and problems can be accessed by
internet.
About Us
Dr. Zhanna Williams has
more than 20 years of
teaching experience in
preparing students for
standardized tests, entrance
exams, and completions in
math and physics. Dr.
Williams was accepted into
the Moscow State University
correspondence school for mathematics in 6th grade, and
spent her years participating and winning mathematics
and physics competitions. She went on to earn degrees in
Computer Science, Business, and Mechanical Engineering.
She is a recognized expert in pedagogy, coached successful
competitive teams for academic contests in Physics at King
in the United States, and is the founder of Stamford
Polytechnic.
Fabrice Allais received a
M.Sc in plasma physics at
Paris XI-Orsay University
before working on his Ph.D
thesis in San Diego, Ca. He
has a strong background in
both applied mathematics
and numerical simulation.
Having lived and worked
throughout the world for most of his life, he is well versed
in the benefits and drawbacks of different pedagogical
methods. Before joining Stamford Polytechnic, he ran his
own educational business in France. He currently teaches
math, physics and chemistry up to College level. His
teaching style is math oriented without being overly dry.
He likes to include in his lectures many examples that he
picks up from his wide knowledge of current research. He
is a co-founder of Stamford Polytechnic.

Our students have been accepted to
the top universities throughout the
world, we’ll help you get there too.
Even if perfect or near-perfect SAT scores were the only
criteria for acceptance for top-tier universities, many
top students would find themselves receiving
disappointingly thin envelopes containing rejection
letters from their most desired schools.
Distinguishing yourself from other students competing
for admission becomes critical. Community service,
special projects, and achievements through academic
competitions are characteristics that get notice from
Universities. Challenge and competitions prepare the
student for University life and beyond.
“Dr. Williams is the best teacher for
physics – because of her, I was
accepted at MIT!” – Bea Nash, MIT,
Physics, Class of 2019, 1rst Place in
New England Region, 6th Place in the
USA, 14th Place Worldwide out of
10,000 students. AAPT Physics

Academic competitions are fun and enjoyable, they are a
markedly different experience than a test in class. They
are focused on the joy of learning and contestants truly
enjoy the topic, be it mathematics or physics. Our staff
are former champions of academic contests, and will
show you the tricks and fundamentals of analysis,
problem solving, and developing intense focus in the
heat of the big day. Come join your elite team members
in one of the most exhilarating mental challenges you
will ever face in your high school career!
