I am also a professional photographer and photo editor, as well as actor and singer-songwriter, with additional knowledge in Social Media Marketing.

    Artist website: www.eleonorakouneni.com

    Language skills & translation: I am fluent in Green, English and Spanish languages and have specifically studied translation during the course of my bachelors degree.
    Greek: native.
    English: native. I started learning English when I was 4 (always from native speakers), obtained both the American and British C2 certificates for proficiency in English when I was 15. I also have a qualification to teach.
    Spanish: I started studying Spanish as a teenager, lived and studied in Spain for a year at University (which made me acquainted with both formal and informal Spanish from various places), and have obtained the C2 certificate for proficiency in Spanish, which also qualified me to teach.

    I have been translating articles among all these languages for 3 years on a freelance basis for several clients. Here's a link to a novel I translated from Greek to English through PeoplePerHour: shorturl.at/mHS48

    I also have a high level of expertise in translating technical and scientific texts.

    Proofreading: My job as a scientific copy editor/proofreader for the past two years has provided me with immense training and experience on editing/proofreading/layout and scientific/technical publishing methods. I am equally capable of proofreading a children's' story or literary novel, as I am editing and checking the science on an oncology research paper. I am also an expert on proofreading translated texts, especially with the language combinations above, as I am very familiar with mistakes made by English, Greek and Spanish writers in other languages.

    Others skills include: Subtitling, American to British English transcription, Photography, Image editing on Photoshop, Video editing, Layout editing on InDesign (text/figures/tables), Technical terminology, Bibliography, Plagiarism checks, Rephrasing and restructuring of texts, English and Greek teaching and lesson planning, Putting together grammar/vocabulary exercises for foreign language learners, Social media, Screenwriting, Creative writing, blog writing, Acting, Singing, Composing and recording music on logic.

    ❝The limits of my language are the limits of my world.❞
    ‒Ludwig Wittgenstein

    ❝You can never understand one language until you understand at least two.❞

      Eleonora was a pleasure to work with! Having written the first draft of a London-based black superhero novel, I was keen to hire someone enthusiastic and diligent enough to work on a project very close to my heart, and she delivered this in abundance.

      Eleonora immersed herself completely in the novel as she carried out the copyediting work, and she was very thorough with the editing work she produced. Her communication throughout the process has been clear and consistent, explaining how she would work and what she required from me, which gave me the much-needed sense of security when hiring people for work.

      She also had the ability to give me very strong (but necessary) feedback on the work I’d produced and highlight all the holes, fluff and points of improvement needed for my work to be the best it can be.

      I’m very happy to have worked with Eleonora, and I’d be happy to work on similar projects with her in the future. I would 100% recommend her!

      Thank you for your lovely words Dami! I am very glad you are satisfied with my work. Your novel kept me engaged throughout, which made working on it all the more enjoyable! Would absolutely love to work with you again in the future too.
