Hello Vedra,

If you are really a professor of Russian language as what you acclaimed, I believed that you must be very good at it!

I therefore, suggest that you consider to become a part-time or free lancer of translator (writing or spoken). You could make some money here and there..

Try to contact companies that offer translation services by exposing your-selves to them. They may have some translation jobs (written or spoken) for you (if not full time, perhaps part-time on ad-hock basis). However, if they have translation job for you, ask for 50% down-payment before you commit yourself to do the translation. The balance could be paid when the job is completed.

From my experience or at least from what I know of, it is quite difficult to find  the translator in English-Russian-English or Scadanivian-English-Scadanavian in Malaysia. Normally, if I have this request, or could not find the translator for “specific” language, I would contact : Institute Terjemahan Negara Malaysia.

Feel free to contact me if you need further inquiry : [email protected]

Hi, yes I really am a professor of Russian, Polish and Ukrainian languages and literature, I have my original university diploma, and yes, I am excellent in what I do! I am a good translator, writer and teacher. I had a job at the University in Zagreb, I was also a proofreader for Croatian and Russian...

I was looking for the job you are suggesting here many times in KL, but I had no luck: I left my ads here and there (papers, Internet, blogs, colleges...) but nothing...
I don't know really if that is happening to anyone here, I seriously doubt that tough, what I believe is that somehow I am chronically without a luck in the past year and a half...
I can't wait to go back to my country; here in all that time I lost my confidence, because so many people played me, cheated me, and in some way I feel responsible and guilty for being so naive and trustful, even stupid... I was not ashamed to work in the restaurant at the end, washing dishes and cleaning the toilets, but even for that work I wasn't paid, I was just used and used and used all the time, so I am asking myself, what is wrong with me? It is not only that this country totally sucks, it is about me and my attitude, they broke me here...literally... I lost everything here, I mean in material sense, but I don't care anymore, I just want to live normally, earn a decent living, and that seems impossible here, in this country. Am I going to have anything to eat tomorrow? I have 200RM left and still no job, I have to pay the rent in 7 days or we are on the street, and on top of that my husband is ill and I can't buy medicines... I am praying. It is all I can do.
Thank you for contacting me, Mrs Rijk.

Hello Vedra,

Last week,I saw the ad that one company is looking for Russian Speaking Translator, I am not either they have hired someone or not..

I also could introduce you to one of Translator Company, which belongs to some one I know. You could try to send your resume to him though I could not guarantee either they have a job for you in a week time. For this company, you could quote my name, if you want.

I am very sorry to hear your story! and I am awaiting for your e-mail if you still want it
