If you are reading an interview today, let it be with Ognian Ognianov - the 11-year-old student who has taken a medal from almost every mathematics competition he participated in. There are 36 gold medals and 8 cups in mathematics ... and one football cup. He sings in people of the Bulgarian National Radio and is very good at kindergarten. Oggy is the first participant in the new series of MediaBricks.bg "Interview with an Olympian". Apart from many mathematics, we are talking about a 20-hour flight to Cambodia, what it is like to be a goalkeeper with a broken hand and about his role in the closure of the European Parliament.

[Interview with an Olympian] An 11-year-old student with 50 medals from mathematical competitions - Ognian Ognyanov
[Interview with an Olympian] An 11-year-old student with more than 50 medals from mathematical competitions - Ognian Ognyanov at MediaBricks.bg Ognyan Ognyanov is a student who just graduated 4th grade and was 11 years old before the interview with MediaBricks.bg. He has the talent to solve mathematical problems. Ognian is so well with mathematics that he wins medals from almost all of the races he has ever appeared. There are about 50 medals, of which 36 are gold. He is also a proud owner of several cups (super-medals). In his racing career, he has won 8 cups (and 1 football, but for her later).
Ognian begins to think at three more years, the first competitions challenge him before even crossing the threshold of the school. He studies at HFC Sofia, but is currently on vacation and is preparing for the next international competitions. In addition to mathematics, Oggy rehearses 4 times a week in people of the Bulgarian National Radio. Even on the 27th of June there is a concert for the closing of the Bulgarian Euro-Presidency.
For his development he thanked very much to Assoc. Prof. Ivaylo Kortezov. Ognyan is the laureate of the Dimitar Berbatov Foundation and last year at the All Stars charity football game he received his distinction on the pitch of the crowded stadium "Vasil Levski".
[Interview with an Olympian] An 11-year-old student with more than 50 medals from mathematical competitions - Ognian Ognyanov before MediaBricks.bgNo remember that he is a student of 11 years. That's why he likes to play video games. There are two consoles and almost every night playing on a network with friends. Of course, like every child, games in front of games are part of a complicated child-parent deal. There is time for everything, and the most important thing is that he has time for sleep.
Today we present you Ognian Ognyanov in an interview with the help of his mother Emilia. This is the first in the series "Interview with an Olympian", with which MediaBricks.bg will aim to make popular the smart children of Bulgaria.
Hello, will Oggy introduce yourself to the readers of MediaBricks.bg?
My name is Ognian Ognianov, 4th grade I graduated from HH Sofia University. From yesterday I am 11 years old.
How did you find math? Who ignited you for her?
Even before I started school, I went to fun math with puzzles, tanggrams and other such games at the Center of Maths of Fun. Then I started doing a little more seriously.
Why did you record it there?
 [Emilia] We saw it as an ad on the Internet and we thought it would be interesting. He was then 5 years old and they put him in the first-grade group. Since he has been counting for three years, he has evolved rapidly.
How many races did you win medals?
Most competitions. I have about 50 medals, I almost have no medal competition. I think there are about 36 gold medals.
[Emilia] One football cup and 8 cups for mathematics. Cups like him more than medals.
Have you traveled outside Bulgaria at competitions?
Yes. I have already gone to two - in Thailand and in Cambodia.
Few children of your age can boast that they have gone to such exotic places. Did you like traveling? Are you afraid of flying?
I'm not afraid of flying. But the flight to Cambodia was very long - 20 hours and a few hours of going alone. There was not much time to rest before the race. I had about 6 o'clock. The competition was at 3 am Bulgarian time. I did not like the trip very much, but the experience was great. I liked the state. They invited me for free because of my good performance at the Singapore Olympics.
[Interview with an Olympian] An 11-year-old student with over 50 medals in mathematical competitions - Ognian Ognyanov at MediaBricks.bgWhat do you like the races? Are you worried?
I'm worried, but I'm willing.
Is there a teacher you are grateful for and who helps you for these successes?
 Maybe there are a few. Assoc. Prof. Ivaylo Kortezov - Perhaps the best teacher. I went to Prof. Kortezov for two years. Mrs. Maria Tomova too.
I also want to thank Lubomir Lyubenov, who is the organizer of most of the mathematical competitions with international participation held in Bulgaria. Also to all my son's mathematics teachers!
Do you want to become one of the bigger mathematicians?
