My name is Manal Makki and I am a qualified and experienced translator working from English to Arabic wich is my native language or vice versa. My aim in translation is not to bring a text that sound translated but to produce one that is fresh, energitic and similar to the source text.

My path to become a translator was always sought because of my desire in writing and reading, it was my creativity in writing that helped me in acheiving my goal as a translator.

Due to that, I took interest in studying English Literature and completed that interest in obtaining a Master degree in Translation which together shaped my career.

My first experience as a translator was in journalism; I translated some news articles on diffiernt topics,following I worked in a non-profit organiztion where my work covered translating legal documents, reports and studies. After that, I was encouraged to take a different direction and work in a well-known audit firm where I translated financial reports and manuals and sometimes IT reports.
