Your profile needs work...

•  remove the video....  you look stiff and uncomfortable, like you are trying really hard to read some text, and the English isn't great and it's hard to understand what you are saying because the spoken English is so poor.
• Edit your overview. There are too many mistakes, it is WAY too long and too much "I". 
• Change your English level to something more realistic, any client expecting native level English skills will be disappointed and it is always better to under-promise and over-deliver than the other way around...

Completely rethink your approach. Be honest about your skills, rather than promising stuff you'll never be able to deliver.

Rewrite your overview, concentrating on how clients will benefit from hiring you rather than on you yourself. Keep it much shorter, and proofread it so it is not littered with mistakes like it is at the moment.

Be completely honest about your skills. Always under-promise and then over-deliver. Doing it the other way around results in the kind of JSS you have now.
