English ESL Teacher/Translator: Spanish-Dutch-English/SEO Copywriter

¡Hola! I am Freek Glas, an enthusiastic languages expert specialized in: ★ Translation & interpretation (Dutch, Spanish and English) ★ Editing & proofreading ★ Copywriting & SEO ★ Language teaching (mainly English) I'm fluent in Spanish, Dutch and English. On a daily basis I use these languages for translation, interpretation, editing and proofreading. In recent years I have worked for several certified translations agencies and clients from all over the globe. I also do work as a content creator, copywriter/SEO. And last but not least, I have a Bachelor's Degree in Education with a Specialization in Teaching English as a Second Language. In the past I have worked as an English teacher in a Panamanian private school teaching to elementary and middle school students. Background: I was born in the Netherlands but after turning 17, I decided to move to Panama as an exchange student with the international youth exchange organization AFS. After spending my first year in Panama, I decided to stay there and follow a new path. This is when I started studying at the local public university. After five years I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in teaching English as a second language. I have worked temporarily at a public elementary school and at a private school for a year. Not long after, I started to get interested in new opportunities. My main interest always had been translation. I began to practice translating documents of all kinds every day, dedicating many hours a day until I became an expert. Currently I have worked for several certified translation agencies and many clients. Right now I'm in the process of obtaining my own title as a sworn translator.
