YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
My first translations started in 1970 within the family business where I used to help with business transactions in French and Italian. This involved contacts, proformas, Phytosanitary Certificates etc.
I have not given up translation since that say.Foreign languages have been the core interest throughout my life and the very heart of my education. Besides I have been teaching EFL for 31 years.
Over the last 7 years translation takes up 80% of my working day
