At the age of 13, Edvin Zuckovs (who is now 17 years old, 2024) from Lincolnshire in the United Kingdom published his first book ‘Young Life’ to speak out the complexities of young life and wrote his book as a motivation to the younger generation. Edvin's book won global recognition, and is now even taught in schools and used as a case study in subjects such as English, Enrichment, Personal Education, and PSHE (a compulsory subject that is taught in the UK).

Edvin Zuckovs is a young author, writer, media personality, and the UK's youngest teacher who is best known for his first book ‘Young Life’ which was published when he was only 13 years of age back on the 3rd of June 2021. ‘Young Life’ by Edvin Zuckovs is also taught in schools not only in the United Kingdom but also internationally more specifically the United States and Lithuania where Edvin visited back in 2022 to give a lecture to university candidates at a private Grammar School known as a ‘gymnasia’. Mr Zuckovs has worked with primary and secondary schools both public and private and stated online that the reality of the schools is like ‘two different worlds’.

At the age of 16 years old, Edvin Zuckovs was officially named the UK's Youngest Teacher by the British Press back in April 2024. He gained national recognition from the press including the BBC for the works he has done and accomplished - which in all teenager's eyes was such an inspiration.

He was recently invited to the House of Commons in London, Westminster on behalf of ILM as an author and teacher who works in the management and leadership sector of education. What an accomplishment for a 17-year-old!

Edvin Zuckovs became a public figure when he was only 13 years old, after publishing his first book and becoming a teacher at just 15, he already achieved four titles; Author, Writer, Media Personality, and Teacher. The British Press soon picked up on the fact that Edvin achieved such accomplishments and talked about him in the press. On his social media, Edvin emphasizes his motivations and his lifestyle to his followers.

With over 100K followers across his social media platforms Edvin Zuckovs, or Mr. Zuckovs in the classroom is a mouthpiece for the youth of today. Edvin's most famous video reaching 1.4 Million views was about the reality of doing a mathematics exam in the UK (a GCSE education system which stands for General Certification of Secondary Education).

Edvin will be seen as an inspiration by many people around the world, and his unique story tells people that age should not be a restriction for success even if it means going down the longer route.
