I have begun to study English in 1963 in the kindergarten.
1964-74 - School (golden medal and 5 on English). 1974-80 - Institute (5 on the state exam).
1983-84 - Post-graduate (5 on the post-graduate exam). 1993-96 - Private courses.
From August 1998 to June 1999 I had a strong practice of communication with English speaking foreigners when I worked in the Internet-office.
I am studying Korean from 1995 due to my brother Alex.
The most of my literary (poetical) translations are in anyway connected with brother's singing career.
Mostly they are translations of my old verses from Russian to Ukrainian. Because of my Korean man is Ukrainian nationalist, he doesn't like to sing in Russian.
Also it is some from Korean. Of course, with great aid of brother.
Besides, a lot of work connected with WWW.
