Franco-Btritish, and raised in South Africa, albeit with French schooling, I am perfectly bilingual in French and English, both being my native tongues. I have acquired experience as a translator in both languages and in various fields. I can work with technical terms and always thoroughly research the subject first. Proofreading is my strong point as my writing skills are excellent in both languages.
I am a talented, ambitious and hardworking individual, with broad skills and experience in computer programming, writing and leading projects.
Furthermore, I am adept at handling multiple tasks on a daily basis competently and at working well under pressure.
A key strength is communication; building strong relationships with people in order to deliver the best results.
I have been working as a language teacher (both privately and publicly) for over five years. I teach English and Italian - both my native tongues (I am bilingual).
Furthermore, I have also translated such documents as birth certificates, culinary guides and travel brochures from Italian to English and English to Italian.
I am currently a drama and theatre arts student at university in London.
Hi!
I'm Emma and I have been working as a freelance Italian-English translator for 8 years. I previously lived in Northern Italy, and have a 1st Class Degree in Italian, and a Masters in Translation Studies.
As a freelance translator, I have worked on a variety of projects over the past 15 years, including but not limited to lifestyle, technical, eCommerce (Amazon), hospitality and retail translations.
I'm aware of the differences between creative translations and exact translations and will adapt my style to your respective needs. I can deliver an accurate and human translation on time, every time.
