Eva's Translation & Editing
Swedish/English, English/Swedish, Swedish
Shepherdstown, West Virginia, USA
I am a native Swedish speaker fluent in English with four years' experience as a freelance translator.
I specialize in arts and humanities, mainly prose & poetry, linguistics, pedagogy, philosophy, music and dance.
I have worked as a freelance translator in Swedish/English since January 2004. The assignments I have taken on have included manuals for watches and mp3 players, training manuals for hairdressers, web site texts, poetry, church newsletters, as well as personal letters and poetry.
My experience includes several years as a language and music teacher at high school level and in adult education. I have taught English as a second language in Sweden, as well as Swedish as a second language in the US. I have also worked as a beauty consultant and sales associate as well as a waitress.
My education includes a Master of Arts in English and a Master of Education in Music and English, both from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Additional education includes an Eurolta Certificate (European certificate in language teaching to adults) from Folkuniversitetet, Gothenburg, Sweden; a year of linguistic, literature, and art classes at the University of Maryland at College Park, USA; the 2000 Study Tour Award, the Japan Foundation Japanese Language Institute, Kansai, Osaka, Japan.
