✔️Experienced English-Japanese Translator and Interpreter specializing in Translations and Proofreading with EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE. 👋Hello. I’m Kohei. I'm a translator and interpreter with over 12 years of experience. I'm fully bilingual and a native speaker of both English and Japanese and pride myself in offering professional and quality services. So if you need to accurately translate various types of documentation such as news articles, business e-mails, business contracts, legal documents, social media posts, video subtitles, research papers, government regulations, give me a shout! I have worked with ✨High Profile Clients/Organizations✨ in Japan, the USA, Canada, and the UK. Including the following to illustrate a few of them: ✅ Benesse ✅ Ajinomoto ✅ Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Fisheries (MAFF) ✅ US Army Corps of Engineers ✅ Naha District Prosecutor's Office ✅ Naha Tourism Association ☕️WHY CHOOSE ME OVER OTHER FREELANCERS?☕️ 🔹Responsiveness: I have been working remotely for over 7 years now so I understand the importance of regular and quick communication. As a client of Upwork myself, I've been burned one too many times by "hey sorry, I'll hand it in tomorrow." Deadlines are as important to me as they are to you. I avoid unrealistic deadlines and will be upfront about what I can handle. 🔹English Literacy Efficiency: Although technically my second language, English is one of the languages I am most comfortable with, as I have spent most of my life speaking English growing up in Ottawa, Canada. I did my schooling in Ottawa from elementary school to college in English and French. I got my TESOL certificate to teach conversational English, and have been doing so for over ten years in Okinawa, Japan, as well as translating. 🔹Japanese Literacy Efficiency: Japanese is my mother tongue. I was born in Okinawa and moved to Canada at a young age. There, I kept my language skill by going to Japanese hoshuko, as well as by reading and watching Japanese literature and media. In my mid-20s, I moved to Okinawa where I have been able to use my language skills to make a living for myself and my family. Eventually, I was able to start my own business in Okinawa which requires a lot of administrative and customer relation work, almost all of which require a high-level of Japanese proficiency. 🔹Extensive Experience: I have been a translator and interpreter for over 12 years working in English to Japanese and Japanese to English. Experienced working with high-profile clients/organizations and received great positive feedback. Wide range of translation fields: Education, Food Regulations, Games, Legal, Technical, Medical, and Social Media Marketing. 🔹Project Manager: I can manage large translation projects by hiring other translators. The MAFF project mentioned above involved over 7 translators from all over Japan and over 50 documents - all of which were about 60 pages in length! 🔹Other Skills: -Graphic design -Adobe Illustrator -Adobe Photoshop -Aegisub 🙋♂️I look forward to working with you, to provide reliable, consistent, and high-level translations and interpretations. Please contact me so we can discuss how we can work together to FULLY meet your business needs!

Welcome to my Upwork Profile. I am a professional Japanese translator, interpreter, subtitler, writer, and cultural/travel consultant who holds a BA in East Asian Languages and Cultures and an MA in Global Studies. I have lived, studied, and worked in Japan for nearly ten years. My time in the country has included two years studying at the prestigious Sophia University in Tokyo, four years teaching English on the JET Program in rural Fukushima Prefecture (during which time I often served as an interpreter for the local government and board of education), and three years back in Tokyo as an interpretation, translation, journalism, and travel specialist. I have engaged in translation work for over ten years, and have worked successfully with hundreds of clients on thousands of projects ranging from website translation to company white pages and business documents, to translations of movies, television series, books, manga, and well beyond. In-person or via video call, my interpretation work has included working with numerous Japanese and US companies on a wide variety of projects. My client roster has included many major companies, some of which are household names, as well as small businesses and one-on-one personal clients. Additionally, my experiences with language learning and historical and cultural studies as well as my extensive experience in world travel have led to appearances at speaking events, popular podcasts, and major news media, including the BBC and NPR. I also write historical articles that cover lesser-known aspects of Japanese history and the focal points where Japanese culture meets with that of the outside world, and serve as the editor-in-chief of the popular Japanese culture website Unseen Japan. In addition to all this, I also provide Japan travel consultation, using my deep experience in travel in-country to help craft travel itineraries that fit my client's preferred travel style. I'm also available to accompany travelers in Japan in order to provide Japanese language assistance and historical-cultural information during their time in the country.

Over 90% of my clients (many from the US and Europe) have faced challenges with translators or agencies that didn’t grasp the cultural nuances critical to succeeding in Asia. I know you’re wondering—okay, so how are you different from them? 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘄: I’ve been in the translation game for over 9 years, including 8 years living in Japan, where I immersed myself in the language and culture. Along the way, I’ve gotten burned by shaky linguists more times than I’d wish on anyone. That helped forge a bulletproof 'vetting process' to filter out only the most qualified, trustworthy translators and subtitlers in Asia. Unlike most other ‘𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗱' expert linguists, we have saved 100's of hours (lost in proofreading and correcting) and 1000's of dollars (wasted rehiring someone to fix the mess) for over 320 clients on Upwork. Our team of 200+ native linguists with specialized expertise in Asian markets like Japan, Korea, China, and more, goes beyond translation to localize your content, ensuring your story feels authentic and impactful to your Asian audience. You might be thinking, 'Words are cheap—where’s the proof?'

My good friend once complimented regarding my translation, saying: "your translated sentences turn out really nice even if I put it back on Google Translate. I mean, even better than if I were to take random but formal Japanese or English texts from the internet and do the same. How to say... your words flow smoothly, like crystal clear stream." He was a little poetic, but I think that's saying something about my skills. I am a bilingual translator of Japanese and English, offering more than 5 years of experience in writing and translating in business. I have lived overseas most of my life, native in both English and Japanese with high social skills. My translating experience includes anything related to... - Importing and exporting - Medical needles and syringes - ISO (specifically ISO:13485 and ISO:9001) - Business contracts such as quality agreement and purchase agreement - General e-mail and conversational material Since I have experience of foreign and Japanese cultures, I am confident my work skills exceed just simple word-to-word translation, and am able to read between lines and deliver something that is more heart-felt quality. I believe, when boiled down, that is what brings "good" translation for smooth communication; not something an automated translation can do. On the side note I absolutely love to play video games (so much love for SNES) and I can talk for hours about it. I also love music and I listen to basically anything from Rammstein to Venetian Snares to Great Big Sea. For more information please feel free to contact me. I am open to anything and will be more than happy to help you.
