In 1849 he became a public shorthand teacher. Until 1854 he was a stenography teacher in Nuremberg, then in Würzburg . In 1856 he came for a short time as a chamber stenographer in Munich before an autumn 1856 reputation as a high school teacher at the high school Bayreuth accepted. There he taught French in particular.

Pushkin had great public and theoretical effectiveness in the field of shorthand. He was therefore also referred to as the apostle of Gabelsberger's shorthand in Franconia . Among other things, he founded the shorthand associations in Würzburg and Bayreuth.
