Arabic is my native tongue. The first foreign language is German and the second one is English. After gaining my Bachelor's degree in German at the University of Sanaa 2004, I attended several language courses, including teacher training courses at the Goethe Institute in Munich and a translation course at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz in Germersheim. Since 2009 I have been working as a press translator at the Yemeni news agency SABA. Many of my translations have been published in Yemeni daily newspapers. However, due to the civil war in this country, there is chaos going on, so I am now looking for a job, mainly in the field of online translation.
