Start freelance translating

I’m Russian. I study English for 12 years already. Currently I’m a student of the faculty of Cross Cultural Communications. I tried to translate and interprete for the first time a long time ago. I had some success. But now I want to become a real proffecional in this. It’s a really cool thing. Translaing articles and other texts from another languages one can get a lot of new information and experience. Last month I translated an article for my friend. It was devoted to the interaction of the law and economics. To tell the trueth It’s incredibly intersting, though I thought that I would never have any appeal to this two sciences. 4 years ago

I think that professional translating is something best left to those lucky, lucky people who had the great fortune to either be brought up bilingual or brought up in a different country, so that they are equally fluent in both languages. 4 years ago

I’m going on to studying German as well. I’d love to make some extra money translating into English from those languages. I work in the areas of IT and education, so I intend to concentrate on trying to become a specialist translator in one or both of these areas. 6 years ago
