Aِt present, I work at The Thesaurus Islamicus Foundation, a
non for profit organization that signed an agreement with
Dar Al Kutub and the Ministry of Culture to help preserve
and conserve the Islamic manuscripts. I translate and revise
books, letters, manuals, subtitles as well as content for the
Islamic Manuscript Association.
Accomplishments
● During my first month at work, I finished revising
and editing a book called “Pest Management” and
was able to spot translation and even grammatical
mistakes although the book was edited by an
Arabic Editor.
● I am responsible for revising “The Museum
Environment”, a book that is considered to be the
Bible of the conservation field. The book is known
for its scientific and complex language.
I was so lucky to have the opportunity to go to USA to participate in the one year grant offered by Fulbright Institute. I taught Arabic as a foreign language and studied linguistics classes. I was also considered as a cultural ambassador to represent my culture. By the end of the semester, my students were intermediate Arabic speakers, they knew a lot about the Arabic culture and were able to sing Arabic songs. I developed lessons plans and adopted many ESL activities to suit Arabic lessons.
