Summary

During the years in which I studied at Bar Ilan University I utilised my fresh knowledge to fill various roles: as tutor/academic mentor for the linguistics department, I assisted students with learning difficulties to excel and gain exceptional achievements in academia; during the months of summer 2023, I produced and presented online English classes for a large group of orphans in Rwanda; as research assistant I worked on data transcription, annotation and coding for an innovative joint project between Bar Ilan University and the University of South Florida; for Red Pill Post Production I edited an automated transcription of a film script; and finally, a PHD candidate employed my editing services for a pre-dissertation publication. In addition to the valuable experience gained from this range of work, I developed the necessary skills for planning and managing every aspect of each of my research projects during my degree. Through the sincere effort I invested in all of these endeavours mentioned, I received the reward of shared accomplishment. Daily, I apply, train, and evolve my linguistic knowledge so that I am a strong candidate for an internship in forensic linguistics.
