To whom it may concern:

I started working as an English teacher in
1993. In 1999 I interrupted my career as a teacher to pursue my goal of becoming
a translator.

I worked for Madeira Management Company in the
position of Legal Assistant/Translator, from November 1999 to June 2004.

 In 2009
I did a post-graduation course in Special Education (in the areas of cognition
and motor disabilities). After finishing this course I continued teaching, but
this time as a special education teacher, a position I hold until now.

After this experience in the above mentioned
company, I went back to teaching English for four years.

I see myself as a hard worker and able to cope
with the workload efficiently and reliably. My professional attitude and quiet
disposition allows me a greater focus on the work in hand. There is seriousness
in everything I do. Although somewhat reserved at first, I demonstrate an
openness to change and I am definitely approachable and helpful to other
people. I am particularly suited to working in a multicultural environment.

I believe my work principally that of translation
is excellent and I successfully completed all projects that were assigned to
me.

On a personal note, I would like to add that I
love going to the movies, reading (particularly, but not limited, to science
fiction), writing (mostly poetry) and hiking.

My goal in life is to work full time as a
translator/writer as I consider it a very creative and challenging work.
