Translation isn't just a job, it's a passion !

About myself

It is no coincidence that I have a deep love for languages. Born in Newcastle, and moved over to France at the age of eleven years old, i had such a big chance to grow up, and speak English and French. I knew from a young age that I wanted my future profession to have something to do with languages, cultures and people. Translating is far more than transferring information from a text into a different language. Having a wide knowledge of the cultures, styles and etiquettes involved is just as important as finding a way to stay truthful to the original text whilst creating an appealing text in the target language. During my ISIT studies, I did not only improve my skills as a translator, but also discovered my talent for optimizing and writing French texts. My main priority is to fulfill – and whenever possible, exceed – the expectations of my clients and to satisfy my own ambition. In order to do so, I always work professionally, thoroughly and with the passion for languages that is the key to my success.

Prices

Every text is different. The costs for a translation, a text revision or a text creation depend on the length, difficulty and state of the text as well as the urgency of the task. I place great emphasis on fairness and therefore always aim to agree on a price which is just and beneficial to my clients but allows me to deliver excellent work.

Translations documents are charged per word, standard page or flat rate. In most cases, I can tell you the exact price for a specific project in advance.
Text revisions and text creations are charged on an hourly basis. It is of course also possible to agree on a reasonable fixed price beforehand.

Face to face interpreter; 20€/hour
Phone call translations to a french fixed number; 8€
French lessons; 15€/hour-28€/hour
