ABOUT ME
Hello, everybody! My name is Bartosz, I am Polish. I work as an English teacher and translator. At the moment I am teaching online students from abroad. I also translate movies for cinemas, television and film festivals and I translated two books into Polish.
I am also a poet - I published 5 books of poetry and got lots of awards in Poland. I am one of the best known poets in Poland - there is even wikipedia entry about me: https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartosz_Konstrat Unfortunatelly, only in Polish. I regularly take part in poetry festival in Poland and I was also on transtations scholarships in Latvia and Czech.
I also write short stories, dramas and screenplays. One of my plays was staged at a theatre in Warsaw, and one of my screenplays was made into a short movie - I can show it to you :)
