Ilona Kovalenko

Hello everyone, I would like shortly to introduce myself and my skills:
My name is Alina, I am 21 years old, I was born in Ukraine, Lviv. So from there goes my knowledge of Russian and Ukrainian languages. As my city is located near borders with Poland, in childhood I spent a lot of time abroad visiting my family and later I applied to Warsaw University, that's why now I can freely call Polish my third native language. During my studies I took part in Erasmus + program in Croatia, where for a year I was studing at Zadar University, and in meanwhile finished summer school of Croatian and Italian languages. And I fell in love! With climate, traditions and language itself, so after finishing university I moved to live here. That's where I am currently located-Zadar, Croatia. Here I learned Croatian grammar in school and live language in my everyday life. Day by day, I am also improving my skills of Italian language. Huge advantage is that in this cozy tourist city you can get knowledge not only from language schools but as well from live communications. As I am currently working in tourist area I meet hundreds of different people every day, they are openly sharing their knowledge, so until now  I also got some knowledge in German, Slovenian and Hungarian. And that's where I got inspiration to apply for a freelance jobs, so that I am also able to share knowledge I got from others and learn something new as well. One of the most important things I want you to know about me is that I am very passionate about everything I do. So your job will be done not only with knowledge and experience, but also with huge love.
I have experience in translation of different types, including word-for-word translation, adaptive transaction, semantic and others. I was practicing it starting from my University and to official requests from my employers. My second passion is Writing, I am good at informal as well as at formal esseys, reports and letters. I can write about all topics and in all languages I listed above. My other big hobby is design and illustrations, I have never had a chance to learn it proffecionally, but it's something mine what goes from heart, that's why I will gladly take jobs requests connected to this area too.
Quality of my job stands on first place for me. I am always open for discussions, very responsible, helpful and motivated. I hope everything I listed and above all my wish for further self development make me an interesting potential candidate, I would be very happy to become a part of this platform and cooperate with you
