Prof UJ, Dr hab. Mariusz Marczak. In the years 1997-2017, I worked as a foreign language teacher educator at university level. In that role I ran a large number of teacher training workshops, including INSETT events. I also collaborated with the British Council Poland as an education/CALL consultant and a member of the editing team for the web portal The British Studies Webpages. In 2014-2015, I was an EFL researcher for the Institute of Educational Research in Warsaw, investigating the realisation of the National Curriculum at junior secondary school level. Between 2016 and 2019, I was Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Translator Education and Translation Studies. Currently, I am involved in translator education. I am also a textbook appraisal expert for the Polish Ministry of Education and Science, as well as President of the Consortium for Translation Education Research (CTER).

I am a member of three professional organisations: the European Society for Translation Studies (EST), the International Association for Translation and Intercultural Studies (IATIS), the Consortium for Translation Education Research (CTER) and the Polish Association of Applied Linguistics (PTLS), as well as a reviewer for international academic journals, including Interpreter and Translator Trainer (Routledge), Translation and Interpreting Studies (Routledge), Teaching English with Technology (University of Nicosia, Cyprus and Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Poland), English Language Teaching (Toronto, Canada), International Journal of Continuing Engineering Education and Language Learning (Olney, Bucks, UK).

I systematically deliver papers at national/international conferences and publish academic publications. My research interests cover: technology-aided translator education, Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) and the development of intercultural competence.
