I build audio-first EdTech content and deliver precise multilingual localization.
KyrgyzstanWhat I'm looking for
I'm building a Duolingo-style Islamic learning app for children in the Russian-speaking CIS market, with an audio-first, three-cycle spaced-repetition system for spoken memorization. I write screen-by-screen specifications and build AI-assisted media pipelines for production teams.
At Qalan, I created a practice-first Arabic-learning methodology and led product development to MVP. I also localized around 100 authentic videos word-by-word for FluentU and have transcribed roughly 50 hours of audio across varied recording quality and accents.
As a native Kyrgyz speaker fluent in English, Russian, Arabic, and Urdu, I work across transcription, localization, interpreting, and educational content. I authored a published beginner's Urdu textbook for Kyrgyz speakers and bring tajweed-trained attention to pronunciation, intonation, and prosodic detail.
