Learn more about my skills and experience.

My approach to work is flexible and my services tend to evolve with my clients requests, so please let me know if you have a requirement that’s not listed here and I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs.

I can help ensure that you present in
French using:

• correct and idiomatic terminology
  and phrases
• a native-sounding style and register
• accurate and clear pronunciation
  and intonation
• a confident delivery style
• well-organised and clear content

I offer skills coaching on an ad hoc basis,
or as part of a larger foreign language project.
For example, I might translate some
corporate literature for your company and
then coach you on the best way to present it
to your target audience.

I also offer:

• French Presentation
  Skills Coaching
• Translator Training

Translator Training

Building on my substantial experience in both teaching and translation, I have over the years developed an interest in delivering translator training and continuing professional development (CPD) events:

• I am a lecturer in French translation skills at University College London
• I regularly give presentations on practical aspects of translation at professional events, including at the London Language Show
• I deliver webinars for new translators, along with a team of colleagues, as part of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting professional development programme
