Before going into details, here is an important reminder. For some people it is clear, but in daily life the words “translation” and “interpreting” are often mixed up. To summarize, translation is written whereas interpreting is verbal, but both deal with the same reality, i.e. converting a message from one language to another. In other words, a translator writes whereas an interpreter speaks.

My services

I am a freelance English/Spanish to French translator based in Brittany, France. I graduated from ISIT (Higher Institute of Interpreting and Translation in Paris). I specialise in the following areas:

TRANSLATION

Translate. Yes, but what? Into which language(s)? How, and using which method? Discover what makes a translator’s work –and particularly mine - professional.

PROOFREADING/EDITING

Proofreading, checking, editing. You might think that all these terms are synonymous, but in fact they relate to different services depending on whether it is the source document, the target text, the style or simply the layout that is under consideration.

LIAISON INTERPRETING

Find out the differences between simultaneous, consecutive, ad-hoc and whispering interpretation, and which services I offer.

MULTILINGUAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT/TRANSCRIPTION

Project management means handling a large project. “Large”, because it implies various documents, languages, services, subcontractors… I can be the missing link(s) in your organisation, to offer you a complete service on demand, from A to Z.
