In my 22 years I have lived in three different countries: Armenia, Ukraine, and Austria. Having lived in Ukraine for two years, I have passed the External Independent Evaluation and entered the Kyiv National Economic University, which, however, I left in 2017, as I decided to move to Austria.
I have been living and studying in Vienna for the last four years, since 2017. Here I graduated with the highest honor from the Vorstudienlehrgang der Wiener Universitäten (University Preparation Programme of the Vienna Universities) in June 2018, where I mastered the language, worked as a MAP-student (“Mother tongue contact person”), helping other foreign students with their integration into the Austrian environment and also giving some German lessons. The experience of having lived in several countries and studied with a wide variety of nationalities allows me to speed up my adaptation to new cultures, groups of people, as well as to new knowledge.
In October of 2018 I have entered the State University of Vienna at the Faculty of Linguistics, as I was always passionate about languages, in particular the way they are acquired. Therefore, I delved into the field of “Psycholinguistics and Clinical Linguistics”, accordingly, devoted my both bachelor papers to this topic. In August of 2021 I graduated from the University.
