What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my language skills in translation or education, within a collaborative and supportive environment.

I am an English Language and Literature graduate from Erciyes University, where I honed my language and communication skills. With proficiency in English (C1) and native fluency in Turkish, I am passionate about leveraging my expertise in translation and education roles. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in translation studies and literary analysis, allowing me to approach texts with a critical eye.

One of my notable achievements includes a literary translation project where I translated Turkish short stories into English for a university anthology. This experience not only enhanced my translation skills but also deepened my appreciation for the nuances of both languages. Additionally, I participated in a translation workshop focused on Turkish-English techniques, further refining my abilities in this field.

Beyond academics, I actively engage in extracurricular activities, including volunteering at the Ulusal Dilbilim Kurultay, where I assisted with event logistics and participant coordination. As a member of the Erciyes University Literature Club, I participated in literary discussions and book readings, fostering my love for literature and collaboration.
