Hausa Language Specialist and Linguist skilled in translation, transcription, language evaluation, AI data annotation, and content review.
What I'm looking for
As a freelance translator, transcriber, and data specialist, I translate between Hausa and English while preserving meaning, tone, and cultural nuance. I also transcribe and review Hausa content for accuracy, clarity, and consistency.
In my freelance work, I evaluate text and speech for naturalness, linguistic accuracy, and cultural appropriateness. I conduct quality checks across language datasets and identify errors, inconsistencies, and ambiguities.
At Verbling, I delivered personalized online Hausa instruction to learners at beginner, intermediate, and conversational levels. I created structured lessons and customized materials, then adapted them to learners’ goals and progress.
I bring Hausa language expertise, translation and localization, and language data evaluation to work focused on improving Hausa-language content and AI experiences.
