Bio

Hello,

I studied Turkish language and literature
for one year and French teaching for four years. At the same time, I studied
English. My first translation was a science magazine article when I
was studying at university. I worked part-time for a newspaper for
four years to support my education.

I
became a teacher at Ministry of Education in 1992. I taught many lessons like
Turkish, English, science, social science, art and craft, music, physical
education etc. I lived in Montreal, Canada for six years where I gave Turkish
courses to children and adults from different nations. I took English and
French courses and studied French Certificate Program at the University of UQAM
as well. From time to time I have provided translation and video subtitling in a multitude of fields.

Every job, small or large, is important and respectable for
me. Because of that I translate attentively in a timely and meticulous manner.
I proofread every document after translation. I pay attention punctuation. You
can be sure that you will receive the best service.

Best Regards

Veli TÜRKOĞLU
