Bio

Welcome to My Profile!

This is Yosra Montasser. I’m a native
speaker of Arabic with ten years of solid experience as an
English>Arabic translator.

I graduated from the faculty of Al-Alsun, English
department in 2010. Immediately after that, I worked in a publishing company
where I translated books and learned that precision, attention to detail, and
accuracy is a must.

After that, I worked in a company working in the field of
Foreign Exchange Market. I learned there to work under pressure & translate
news from English into Arabic in the Fxstreet site in less than 12 minutes and
translate news from English into Arabic in the MNI site in less than 5 minutes
while maintaining a good understanding of the English text & translating it
into Arabic without committing any grammatical or spelling mistakes.

Then,I
worked in the translation department in the Yellow Pages Company. There I was
exposed to hundreds and hundreds of company profiles, brochures, marketing
campaigns, restaurant' menus, the hotel offers that needed translation whether
from English into Arabic or vice verse.

I always seek to improve myself. I have
taken several classes in the Translation Diploma at AUC including Linguistics,
Lexicography & Terminology, Arabic Grammar, Arabic Editing, Research Tools,
Economic Translation & Legal Translation.

Besides my full-time jobs, I have
worked as a freelance translator. Among my clients were USAID, Safe
Space, ArabEasy, Aplus Translations, Theloc Masters, Le Service International de Traduction,...etc

Key Achievements
