My profile

Hi,


I'm a language teacher and I'm also a translator by profession.

Normally I teach 3 languages, English, Marathi (my native tongue) and Sanskrut (ancient language of my forefathers).

Since last two years, i.e. the time when I discovered Wikipedia and the incredibly noble mission undertaken by it, I've been a regular visitor to various Wikis. And I must say, the experience was not only enriching in terms of knowledge but it was also humbling in terms of the sheer philosophy behind Wikis.

That's why, with an intention lend a very miniscule hand to this mammothly benevolent mission I've decided to join the WikiEducator Workshop.

I hope I could prove myself a bit useful to this world.


Professional background

Well, I'm a language professional (a translator to be precise) I translate texts from English to Marathi and Marathi to English

Education

I'm a Bachelor of Science (Chemistry Major) and currently studying for Masters Degree in Computer Applications. (Talk about diverse interests!)

My interests

Professional

I'm interested in translating read-worthy texts.

Personal

I'm interested in 3D animation (for those who may care I use Blender 3D, an open-source animations suite). I'm interested in making education as interesting for the children as possible. I'm interested in creating interactive stuff for educational purposes.
