Good communication can be a crucial factor determining the success of every meeting. This is not just a slogan, but it is absolutely a must for anyone who has business dealings with foreign companies. No matter if it takes place in the business environment or in the media spotlight.
My name's Inga Krakowczyk and I am a qualified and experienced teacher and interpreter of Russian and English languages. For many years I have been running my own company called "IM Lingua Inga Krakowczyk" which offers comprehensive training services for companies and educational institutions, written translations and assisting/conference and consecutive interpreting as well as language courses for senior management.
I came to Poland from Russia, where I graduated from one of the leading universities - The Volgograd State University, Faculty of Linguistics and International Communication, majoring in both translation (English-Russian) and teaching and in which I later obtained my Master's Degree with honours. That's why I work as an EFL (English as a Foreign Language) Teacher, I am a native speaker of Russian and a freelance interpreter. I believe it's difficult to conceal that languages have always been one of the greatest passions of my life, so I can say that the work I do matches both my professional and personal interests. I can spend hours working on a translation or explaining complicated grammatical issues and differences between various expressions and can still be fully enjoying myself.
In every situation the key to mutual understanding and establishing a close rapport is the ability to clearly express your intentions to get the message across. This ability should be supported by the knowledge of language nuances, the topics raised in the discussion as well as cultural differences which might effect the overall atmosphere of a meeting. My company has gained experience during complex business meetings which required extensive factual knowledge as well as official visits of diplomats.
