Bio
Certified linguist born in Russia, who has been living in Germany since 2013. Bachelor's degree in East Slavic Studies from the University of Leipzig (year of graduation 2020).

Proficiency in Russian at the level of a native speaker, plus knowledge of academic language. I can compose Russian texts of any plan, do proofreading of your translations you have done into Russian. Also, familiar with transcreation and localization of games, I can make your game look perfect for the intended player.

German skills C1+ (Advanced Plus) almost at the level of a native speaker, because for 8 years I use this language on a daily basis and extensively. My university studies and graduation were conducted entirely in German, which means I can declare such a high language level.

English is at C1 (Advanced) level, considering it was my first foreign language. I was studying it even before I was exposed to German. Even though my whole focus has shifted to working with German, however, English has not been left out. I practice the language on a daily routine. I listen to podcasts, watch YouTube videos, and watch Netflix series without subtitles. Not only that, but I also translate some fiction from English into Russian, especially for a small circle of people and for specific online communities. I will not translate into English, because it is not my native language and I have not lived in an English-speaking environment. Anyway, I will be glad to do translations from English into Russian or German. I am sure that in this case, my interpretations will be awesome.

Thank you for your attention and your interest in my person. Write and contact me if you have any questions.

Best regards
Artur
