About Marwa Gouda
I graduated from the Faculty of Al-Alsun (Languages), Ain Shams University in 2008, and have been working as a translator ever since. I have extensive experience in various translation fields and am proficient in using numerous CAT tools.
Recently, I successfully completed the Foundation Certificate in Translation and Interpreting from The American University in Cairo. I then began studying for a Professional Diploma in Simultaneous and Consecutive Interpreting at AUC, along with an MA in Translation Studies at Portsmouth University (Distance Learning).
In addition to translation and interpreting, I offer professional voice-over services in Modern Standard Arabic and the Egyptian dialect. Furthermore, I lead a team of male and female voice talents, copywriters, and video editors.

People I've had the privilege to work with
Marwa Gouda has contributed through the second round of El-Hakawaty our quarterly Voice over educational program and skill-based workshop, she was also awarded ElHakawaty Star of Professionalism by the end of this round. Marwa has been hired by THE ARABIC VOICE™ studios as an Arabic voice actor on one of their e-learning voice recording productions upon the end of El-Hakawaty second round.
From the very beginning, Marwa proved to be an excellent choice as a female Voice Actor, in modern standard Arabic. She could act and deliver the script with significant linguistic and pronunciation skills and never missed any session whenever she was booked for recording, despite constantly changing schedules.
Marwa is a very dedicated individual with outstanding acting and linguistic capabilities and it was absolute pleasure to work with her. I can recommend her to you without any reservation. Surely, she will be a tremendous asset to any organizations.
