TanzaniaWhat I'm looking for
I am a University of Dar es Salaam graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Language Studies, focused on practical skills in proofreading, editing, translation, and interpretation. I combine academic training in languages with hands-on media experience.
During practical training at BAKITA I produced radio shows, performed translations and interpretations, and delivered high-quality proofreading and editing services. I have strong fluency in Swahili and English, solid written Arabic, and basic Turkish.
I bring leadership, problem-solving ability, and a service-oriented mindset developed through community events and Islamic studies spanning many years. I have been recognized for academic excellence in languages and geography at earlier stages of my education.
I seek roles where I can apply my language, communication, and editorial skills to support media, educational, or translation teams and continue developing professionally.
