Dutch English Translator
$15.00/hr
I am an organized and detail-oriented Dutch English Translator with thirty years of experience in speaking and writing in Dutch and English. I am a native Dutch speaker but I grew up with a native English-speaking stepmother. I was (and still am) a voracious reader in both languages.
I have lived and worked in a diversity of project-based jobs and countries; in North America, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean. These opportunities provided me with great cultural awareness and language knowledge. I was able to polish my English language skills in business settings besides communicating in different languages in my personal life.
During my experiences as a coach and workshop facilitator I learned many valuable interpersonal skills, on top of my natural ability to connect with people.
Over the years I have developed organizational and time-management skills that have helped me excel in achieving my goals, on a personal level and in the workplace.
Recently I successfully translated content from a website and an online house-rental marketplace for a Dutch business into English. I discovered my passion for translating as it combines my love of languages with my language experiences, my calling for helping people, and the fun of problem-solving.
