What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my language skills and contribute to meaningful projects in education or community service.

I am a passionate language professional currently pursuing a BS in World Languages, Literature & Culture at Nazarbayev University, with a cGPA of 3.5. My diverse experiences range from serving as a banquet server at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa to working as an exam invigilator for the British Council. These roles have honed my organizational skills and attention to detail, ensuring that I meet high service standards and contribute positively to team dynamics.

In addition to my work experience, I have a strong background in language education, having taught English to various age groups and prepared students for the IELTS exam, significantly improving their scores. My role as an interpreter for the Research and Consulting Center “KAMEDA” allowed me to bridge communication gaps between international specialists and local NGOs, showcasing my ability to adapt and thrive in multicultural environments.

As a leader, I have coordinated volunteer events and served in various capacities at Nazarbayev University, including President of the Organizing Committee and Vice-President of the Linguistics, Literature and Languages Association. I am committed to fostering community engagement and promoting the Kazakh language through my initiatives.
