I am a lawyer, academic writer, English-Spanish translator and Wikipedia expert. I have studied English at a prestigious language institute in Argentina for 10 years. The extensive education obtained at the institute allowed me to start teaching this language to different groups of students. In addition, I started working as a freelance translator for different websites where I have translated documents, videos and audios from English to Spanish (and vice versa) on a wide variety of subjects. Besides my knowledge of English, I studied law at the National University of La Plata (50 km away from Buenos Aires) and started working as a lawyer in different law firms. I gained a lot of experience in handling legal cases, so I used my legal knowledge to explore my other passion: writing. I started writing and translating different legal documents and nowadays one of my specialties in translation and writing is the legal field. My passion for writing did not stop at the legal field. I explored other fields to become a multifaceted academic writer. At the same time, I started to learn other skills such as creating content for Wikipedia. I have been creating and editing articles for Wikipedia for several years now, knowing its publishing rules to perfection. I love writing as well as translating. I am a very creative person and I am always willing to go the extra mile to ensure an outstanding result in every assignment. In addition, I am part of a group of native Italian, French and Portuguese translators. So we offer translation services from English to Italian, French and Portuguese (and vice versa). If you want a translator or writer who works hard and is reliable for your work, I am the person you are looking for. I look forward to working with you!

Work Motivation and Motivational Theories
Juan Manuel Gimenez Sirimarco
"Motivation is the force that drives the individual to perform an activity or to have a certain behavior in a given situation. Motivated activity differs from instinctive activity in that the first implies willingness of those who practice it, i.e. there is a cause, a reason or a stimulus that drives the individual to do something voluntarily. Motivation is of vital importance for the development of any activity by the individual.
