February 2020 - July 2020,

I taught English Language skills to children from a young age in a private school named
“The Cambridge School” in Gjakova. One of my many tasks was to develop learners’
competencies and skills in modern society. and this ability encouraged me to learn soft skills on a
day-to-day basis in an increasinglydemanding world environment.
 I completed my early school years at the elementary school "Mazllom Kepuska" in
Gjakova, Kosova, and I was known as an ambitious girl who fulfilled her studies with excellent
results. I was engaged in the department of Mathematics & Informatics in Gjakova, and I learned
the basics of mathematics and informatics. I earned my bachelor's degree in English from the
University of Pristina in 2013, and my master's degree in the English Language in 2018, and I
was one of the top 10 classmates to use communication/language for academic and career
purposes.

September 2019 – August 2021

I was involved with administrative tasks at NGO “Kosova Development Centre” where I
ensured the overall administration and additional support of the project. Besides, maintaining
project correspondence and communication; collecting registering, and maintaining project
activities I learned the establishment of cooperation with other organizations, local and central
government, civil society, and community building through the process of project
implementation.

From February 2011 till December 2014, I started internship work at Kosova
Development Center, an NGO in Gjakova. This experience has helped broaden my knowledge of
translation practice in the KDCs agriculture field activity. The strategic goals of KDC include the
development of civic society and aid to groups in need.

During the years 2013 - 2014, I taught the English language at the primary school “Fan
S.Noli” in the village of Dujaka, Gjakova teaching children from third to ninth grade. Many of
the teaching lessons were compiled of (essays, assignments, icebreakers examples from the real
world, etc). Translation of different materials for learners to compare words from English to
Albanian and planning the lesson by putting the learner at the center of the learning cycle.

As continual progress, I worked for 6 months at Kosova Education Center, an NGO in

Pristina, Kosova whose primary focus is the training of teaching methodologies and leadership
reinforced my interest to use practice education as a modern advanced tool, and it helped me learn
authentic teaching methods to apply to the project activity (learning by doing). Writing reports of
staff meetings, meetings with consultants, school visits, etc, would develop my creative thinking
process. Period: January 2018 – June 2018
 Management & Development Associates team would give experience to my education
level in the area of project management. The team meetings at MDA introduced me to MDA
project implementation according to MDA standard requirements. As part of the course, I would
also introduce 10 new Albanian and English slogans to promote 100% agro-dairy products. It was
well-received by the company and staff.

I was also part of a summer project at Gjirafa Inc (search engine machine) where I provided
online services and facilitated the translation process by focusing on core technology products for a
market of around 12 million people.

These valuable experiences have allowed me to develop essential skills such as

organizing, initiating, and implementing new ideas toward achieving desirable targets.

Other highlights of my background that may be of interest to you:

 Team working and diversity of experiences;

 Ability to show initiative and work independently;
 A fluent speaker of English, and Albanian.
