Bio

French-speaking Belgian of Egyptian descent, 40 y-o Iris Soliman started translating roughly 10 years ago, mostly with translation agencies. Mostly translated ES-FR, EN-FR, then PT-FR, RU-FR and CN-FR. For the latter, she is taking lessons (during which she translates once to twice). Also follows numerous MOOCs about a wide variety of topics, including (but not limited to) security, Web development, data science...An important thing though: I don't own any business. 

 For now, her priority languages are English, Dutch, Chinese(Simplified, improving knowledge in Trad.Chinese), German, Portuguese and Spanish. HSK Levels 3 and 4. Ongoing preparation for HSK 5.

In terms of translation topics, she did quite a lot of humanitarian translations (as a Translators without Borders volunteer) these last (nearly) 5 years. You can see an overview of what she has been working on here:

Also contributes to the Coursera Global Translators Community, which features every online course needing to be translated.

LANGUAGE LEARNING/REVIEWING IN PROGRESS: Turkish (MOOC), English Grammar (MOOC), Chinese (Simplified) (HSK Level 5 preparation), Arabic (MSA and Gulf)
