High-Quality Translations by José Miguel Neira
When I was 6 years old I received the "Best English progress" award given by the Cambridge College, in Santiago de Chile, given to one student from first to twelfth grade.
I started self-learning English by translating songs into Spanish and translating news into English. I achieved a satisfactory fluency in written and spoken English by the age of 13.
I traveled to Germany alone when I was 14, where I learned some basic German. My communicative process there was basically Germnglish, and I managed to survive and come back enriched by all the experiences lived there. This first trip opened up my mind to a whole world of social, linguistic and cultural variety.
A couple of years later I traveled across center Europe, visiting Spain, France, Italy, Austria, and Germany. In all of those places I learned a bit of their language and culture.
In another trip I went to England, where I had the chance to establish direct and constant contact with English speakers.
I have worked as a bilingual receptionist, consecutive and simultaneous interpreter, and I currently work as a freelance translator for several agencies from all around the globe and for several end clients.
I graduated as English - Spanish Translator and Interpreter from the Instituto Chileno- Norteamericano and I also participated in the Diploma Specialization in Translation and Information and Communication Technologies given by the Universidad Católica, where I received the award for Best Student in the program.
I am currently working as a volunteer translator for Art in All of Us.
My specializations are Human Resources, Technical translations, Telecommunications and Arts (Music, Visual Arts, etc.). |
