Why Me?

What is your best project so far? Why?
The best project I have ever done is a political article I translated. It has a strict structure that must be translated accurately, and some specific terms which are not used in a routine speech. I named it the best, because working on peculiar texts makes you a better professional.


What do your students / customers say about you?
I am happy to share my knowledge of English when teaching. Besides knowledge, you need to have passion for what you do. And besides passion, you should make your lessons interesting for every student in front of you. Getting positive feedback I understand that this job is for me. My students say that English is like a hobby for them. Being a catalyst does me honor.
