My other skills

I am a person who loves to communicate and help others to communicate effectively.

If you have a document which needs to be in good understandable English, I may well be able to help you.

Writing and translating

These are the kinds of things I could put into effective English for you:
  • CVs (résumés)
  • Employee references (“Arbeitszeugnisse”)
  • Brochures / pamphlets / notices
  • Advertising materials / slogans
  • Websites
  • Presentations (I can help not only with getting the text right, but I can also help you present it effectively). 

I have gained a lot of experience recently in translating legal documents (contracts, general terms and conditions and related website material) from German into English.

Proofreading documents in English

Many people these days have to write documents in English for school, college or work: dissertations, theses, technical papers and so on.

If you’re sure about your area of expertise, but not so sure about your English, I’d be glad to help you by proofreading your document. There is no such thing as a perfect document, but I can help you by finding the most typical problems of grammar, style and clarity.

And don’t worry if the subject matter is very complex: I have proofread some very specialised technical documents.
