I am a native speaker of both English and Dutch: I was born, bred, went to school, university and worked in an English-speaking country until, about 15 years ago, my family (husband and three sons) came to Belgium, the country where my parents were born and from where they had emigrated a year before I came into existence.

I am qualified as a(n academic) language editor, have been editing, teaching and coaching English and have also been doing translations into English for about 20 years now, first at a university, then at a university in combination with private schools (preparing students for the British Council examinations) and, now, finally, as a freelance translator working for law firms, translation bureaus, environment agencies, companies and private individuals, both locally and abroad. |
