A translator isn't just someone who speaks two languages...
...it's someone who knows how to juggle cultures, contexts, and intentions.
Welcome to the reality of translators:
❌ No, you don't ask Google what a sentence means.
❌ No, it's not just about changing words from one language to another.
❌ No, you don't translate 10,000 marketing words overnight without losing a shred of meaning.
✅ Yes, you translate ideas. Emotions. Goals. And you make them resonate in another language.
Who am I?
My name is Mike Fankroma. I'm a native German speaker, grew up in France, and I speak English perfectly.
I've been working as a translator, proofreader, and editor for several years, specializing in marketing, technical, and creative texts.
My goal? Let your German text sound like it was written... in German. Not a trace of translation – just natural, fluid, and impactful.
What I offer you:
🌍 English → German and French → German translation
🔍 Careful proofreading, grammatical and stylistic correction
🧠 A keen understanding of cultural and marketing issues
📦 On-time delivery, compliance with instructions, and confidentiality
💬 Smooth and honest communication, from start to finish
And what can you expect, specifically?
Texts tailored to your target audience and your brand tone
A natural German voice, not a string of translated words
Attention to detail (yes, even little puns or subtle references!)
SEO optimization, if necessary
Professionalism without rigidity – because working together can (and should) remain human and enjoyable.
✨ Other than that? I'm passionate about writing, music (especially rap), urban culture, and the digital world. I've collaborated on projects ranging from WordPress website creation to AI chatbot integration, but my true comfort zone is where words matter.
📩 If you're looking for a dedicated, creative, and serious translator (without taking themselves too seriously), send me a message. I'd love to hear about your project.
Looking forward to collaborating with you,
Mike

Proofreading German
-- Please be aware, that I do not accept being paid outside of Upwork. --
I am a native German, who has lived and studied in the UK and the Netherlands. Therefore, I am fluent in both English (UK) and Dutch. I have an educational background in psychology and medicine, so I am well accustomed to the terminology of these fields. I am usually available for projects on short notice. I am interested in both short-term and long-term jobs. However, I do work a full-time job already, so I can only offer working between 10 - 20 hours a week. Depending on the time of year my availability might change, so please do not hesitate to contact me.
I am very meticulous and reliable. I have great attention to detail and feel that seemingly minor changes and adjustments can have an enormous effect on how well a translation is perceived by native speakers of the language. A text should always feel natural to the reader.
Similarly, proofreading is of great importance to me. When reading a published text on the internet, in a magazine or book, I sometimes stumble across mistakes that are still in there. And even if it is just one tiny mistake, someone somewhere will always have their attention drawn to it.
Your texts, translated or original, should be perfect - if you want to sell your product, if you want to convince your customers to invest their money in you, if you want someone to read your book, and if you want to be taken seriously in your field of work.
