Expert Haitian Creole/English Translator

Hello! 👋🏽😀 My name is Tre. I have over 3 decades of experience speaking, reading, writing, teaching, translating and interpreting Haitian Creole. My translating and interpreting career took off in 1990 when I began informal "on-the-fly" voiceover translation for meetings and conventions between English and Haitian Creole. I have had experience over the years translating manuals, documents, books, brochures, short films and videos, movies and audio projects for various governmental departments, legal and medical professionals, film producers, education professionals and others on a wide range of subjects and also live-voice, and have been greatly esteemed for the quality of the translation as well as the precision of the delivered product. I have also worked on many projects involving transcription and SRT files and on-site interpreting. I lived in Haiti permanently from 2004-2017. I speak Creole every day, all day long. I am adept in Haitian Creole language grammar, sentence structure, nuances and many local proverbs. My entire time in Haiti, I have been involved with teaching Creole to English-speaking people, as well as teaching illiterate Haitians to read and write their language. I have been one of the principal instructors and the chairman for a public speaking course that is conducted on a weekly basis since 2004 (conducted in Creole). The strength of my translation work is built on a native-level understanding of both source and target languages involved, an appreciation for the importance of correct grammar, spelling and syntax, and an editor with an eye for detail. Unless I have signed an NDA with my client, I always have my work proofread by a secondary expert translator prior to sending my results. I do not use Mechanical Translation to do my work for me. I translate and proof each word from every project I undertake. I do use a personal glossary/word bank to ensure consistency. Please see my portfolio for examples of the many successful projects I have completed. I am proficient using Microsoft Office and Adobe. I'm precise, efficient and focused on your needs. I work with a small team of dedicated translators who are experts in the languages of English and Haitian Creole. We have been in Haiti for many years teaching, training, translating and interpreting. We're very flexible and most times we can arrange our affairs to take tasks on immediately. We have great respect for our clients and we respect your time. We don't over-promise and under-deliver. When we say we can do a job, we can do it, and be on-time or early. Get in touch with me for your next project - you won't be disappointed. I'm looking forward to working with you. Sincere regards, Trevor Arnold Professional English-Haitian Creole translation, transcription, interpreting
