INTERPRETING SERVICES

I am based in Wales but interpreting can be provided anywhere in the UK. 

I have over 3 000 hours professional experience. Clients include NHS, Police, Courts, Local Government, other public services, solicitors and commercial companies. I have experience in interpreting Health & Safety (HSE) courses and assessments for various commercial clients. I am also able to assist solicitors and their clients with compensation claims.

Face-to-face interpreting (consecutive or simultaneous) or over-the-phone interpreting can be provided.

TRANSLATION SERVICES

I have over 20 years experience providing translations from English to Czech. I have translated for public sector (NHS, Police, Local Authorities), private and business clients in the fields of architecture, construction, finance, automotive, mechanical engineering, pharmaceuticals and clinical trials. I passed the EU competency test for Czech Language Translators in 2012 and I have worked on various documents for the European Union.

Depending on the nature of the documents, translation into English can also be provided and will be proofread by a native English speaker to ensure optimum quality for the target audience. Please contact me to discuss your needs.

WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA TRANSLATION AND LOCALISATION

I successfully completed the “Advanced e-business skills for translators” course at Swansea University in 2015. I can assist with developing and translating content for websites, social media and social marketing.

REVISION / PROOFREADING / EDITING

I can assist clients with checking translated documents for accuracy, completeness, language and style, to make sure that their final product is of the highest standard and fit for purpose.

I have been teaching public service interpreting courses at Cardiff University for the past 10 years. Please contact me if you are looking for an experienced tutor/trainer to assist with designing and delivering courses in public service interpreting with focus on the principles of professional conduct or the Diploma in Public Service Interpreting (DPSI) examination.
