Hello! My name is Vanessa Walsh and I currently live and work as a freelance translator in Bavaria, Germany. I grew up in Ontario, Canada, and English is my mother language.
I attended Queen's University in Canada and graduated with an Honours Arts Bachelor in Foreign Languages and International Studies, and have competency certificates in French and German, with a working understanding of Spanish. I have four years of immersion in my source languages, years of uninterrupted translation experience, and an excellent command of English, my target language.
I specialize primarily in literary, academic, website, and business/marketing-themed translation, having translated several documents including novels, academic papers, scripts, business plans, and more, from FRE-ENG, GER-ENG, and SPA-ENG. If you need a translator who has experience in creative writing and editing and can ensure a readable, coherent, and professional translation, you've found her here.
I lived in Germany for 13 years, working as a translator and teacher of English. Five years ago I returned to live in the UK, and took the DipTrans examination of the Chartered Institute of Linguists (passed with a merit in general translation , a pass in social sciences and a distinction in Business). I have experience in translation in the following areas - marketing, business, finance, fashion, websites, religious/spiritual themes, medical/pharmaceutical, university papers and theses, social sciences, literature. I am also happy to take on proofreading, editing and transcription assignments. I am a Member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists.
Studied translation at alliance francaise and vocational education committee colleges: qualified as commercial translator ( french ) and irish association of translators ( german )
Have worked for New Books in German, xplanation.com, globalvoices, stealth translations.
I have a M.A. degree in Russian language, literature and linguistics from the University of Arizona, and my translations are read by undergraduate university students across the United States in the pages of _The Russia Reader_ (Duke University Press, 2010). I have also completed three years of German-language study at the University of Arizona. I worked extensively for over four years on the Russian 2014 Winter Olympics Project by translating a variety of documents, ranging from press releases and brochures to technical construction diagrams of the Olympic facilities. If you watched any of the English-language broadcasts of the Opening Ceremony on February 7, 2014, then you would have heard some of my translations of the speeches of officials as read by the TV commentators.
I have also contributed translations of marketing materials that advance the business goals of major companies active in both Russia and Germany. For example, last fall I translated the annual report of a major Russia-based steel producer targeted at investors. I have also recently translated the clothing catalog of a German manufacturer of music merchandise.
Let me help you tackle your next translation or proofreading project. Using my cultural knowledge and academic training, I can help you avoid embarrassing mistranslations that can be hard to avoid when dealing with texts not just written in another language, but produced by a different culture.
My home office computer equipment includes two laptop computers (a Mac and a PC, allowing me to run a variety of CAT software, including SDL Trados Studio 2014). I perform daily backups, and I have high-speed Internet access. With each freelance project I undertake, I guarantee high quality work delivered on or before the deadline and prompt responses to your phone calls and e-mails.

Hello everybody!
My name is Braj. I am working as a freelance translator for the last twelve years.
Over the years, I have translated a variety of texts in all the major fields, such as medical, technical and legal texts, literary texts, tourist information, web pages, and advertising leaflets. However, my preferred subjects are legal translations, tourism & leisure industry and sales & marketing.
My translations are 100% handmade, which means that I never use machine-translation programs, only the best translators tools existing on the market, such as MemoQ and Trados, for the simple reason of saving time in order to deliver the commissioned work in record time.
Before starting any translation, I thoroughly study the topics related to the text subject, and always consult specialized dictionaries and manuals.
I am a very experienced German, Spanish and French-speaking translator, localiser, proof-reader and editor of written texts from a wide variety of areas from those languages into English.
I also have some experience in translating from English into German.
I produce reliable and high-quality work within the fields of energy, industrial manufacturing, marketing, market research, sales, the environment, and also automotive, electrical, machine and plant engineering.
To expand my skills and knowledge, I lived in France, Germany, Poland and Spain for a total of approximately 7 years.
Moreover, I am also an excellent communicator (spoken and written) and administrator, and work confidently, sociably and politely in teams and on my own initiative, while multitasking and keeping to schedules.
Furthermore, I am very motivated, thorough, literate, numerate, diligent, organised and conscientious, have a good eye for detail and have advanced knowledge of Microsoft Office (e.g. Excel and Word).
A devout language enthusiast and American Europhile, I have studied and lived in Germany, France, and the UK. My passion for the German language reaches back to my early collegiate career, and I have committed myself to providing the highest quality translation services and creative linguistic renderings in the German - English language pairing. My translation expertise reflects my depth of knowledge in the social sciences, particularly international relations and political science. Additionally, I have successfully translated travel and cultural texts as well as legal documentation.

Please ignore the rates stated here. Entries are limited to 'words' as units and to 0.20 USD per unit. I charge by hour and depending on the project, that comes out to anything between 0.10 to 2.50 USD per word and even more if we're talking transcreation.

In 2010 I decided to make the jump into freelancing; albeit part-time. Although I'm fluent in spoken and written German, I make it a point to translate into my native language only.

I have 16 years experience of learning and speaking German and have completed four official qualifications as part of this including a BA in German and, more recently, a Translation Studies MA. As part of the BA degree I completed two translation modules, one was an introduction to translation covering theoretical and practical translation elements and the other was an extended translation project of 8000 words, for which I achieved a distinction. My MA in Translation Studies built on this framework with additional experience using Translation Memories and CAT tools via SDL Trados 2011. I have translated a range of text types ranging from media and literature to scholarly and journal articles. I have completed some freelance work since graduating last year, including undertaking a major translation project for a lecturer based at Bangor University where I completed my MA. The translations were used towards his PhD research project.

Hi, I am Anupam R S. I have been working as a German and Spanish language specialist for the last eight years. I have passed C1 in the German language from Goethe Institut and B2 level in the Spanish language. I have worked with a lot of translation companies in these eight years and gained an ample amount of experience in the field of translation. I hope that I will be a great asset to you too.
Thank you!
A little about myself: I have been a multilingual since birth. I was born to a family where everyone is from different countries. Background of my family plays a major role in my having excellent grasp on the languages like English, Hindi, French and German. I was a language teacher to many of the students in the past. It was 2013, when I finally decided to become a professional translator after having been trained by many of the best translators I personally know. I think one of the main things that make me different is my nature of saying "NO/Yes" to a project. I don't take any project that I am even a little unsure about (or) when the project is above my abilities. I do believe that clients' satisfaction plays a major role in any profession, including translation.

I am a translator with over seventeen years of experience, and have been writing for over twenty years. My experience covers a wide range, in that I have been able to accept work from varied topic areas due to lifelong intensive reading of both fiction and nonfiction, and because as a writer I know how to express myself in many styles.

As a writer, I have published fiction and numerous articles in Canada, Germany, the UK and in the USA, and write for film in close collaboration with a filmmaker.

I take pride in having my translations meticulously accurate and at the same time creating a natural sounding English text. Naturally I also promise everything you would expect of a professional - good communication, reasonable rates and a strict adherence to deadlines. So, if you want a high-quality translation, with no hassle, you are in the right place. Thank you!
Writer, Hansard editor, focus on proofreading and clarity. Born in Canada, studied physics until I realised 'crop science' would make a life of travel easier, left for Mexico at 16, have lived in Europe most of my adult life (Israel, Germany, Spain, Czechoslovakia, the UK).
I've been freelance translating while completing my bachelors in Comparative Literature, alongside working on my own translation projects. I have a decent amount of experience translating poetry and other literary sources, which I believe have given me a lot of tools to translate any kind of text -- including marketing, scientific, and so forth.
A brief bio: I was born in Belgium and moved to the United States when I was young, hence I was thrown early on into different languages. Today, I speak/read/write in English, Dutch/Flemish, German, French, and Italian. The exchange of information and ideas across linguistic and geographic borders greatly interests me, which is why, I believe, I enjoy translating texts so much.
If you would like to know anything more about me, please do not hesitate to reach out.
I look forward to hearing from you!
