About me

I am a native speaker of Russian, a professional linguist with an M.A. in English Language, Literature and Translation Studies. I teach English for Academic Purposes (EAP) at the University of Haifa, Israel. In addition to frontal teaching, I write educational materials for an e-learning component of EAP courses and am actively involved in research.

As a freelance translator, I have translated and proofread a variety of articles, reports, contracts, manuals, technical specifications and marketing materials both from English into Russian and from Russian into English.
