Summary
Native Language: English
Second Language: French
I am a thorough and conscientious translator with four years’ experience translating from French to English. I have an excellent command of both my native and second language, having a BA in English and French and a Master’s degree and DPhil in French. I am an expert researcher, allowing me to translate texts on a wide variety of subjects. I specialise in academic translations in the arts and humanities. I am also familiar with specialist terminology in the fields of construction, health, education, and law, having previously worked in these sectors.
Average daily output: translation: 2,500 words, proofreading: 10,000 words, depending on the complexity of the source text.
