Bio

With a background
as a teacher, I have over 20 years’ experience of working with the English
language. I’ve been working at a bilingual school where we teach using both
English and Swedish and most interaction between colleagues is in English too.

I have a degree
in English and crafts and studied translation as part of my university education.
Due to my main profession being a teacher, my translating work have
mainly been focused around instructions and patterns for textile crafts and
information sent out by the school.

Textiles and textile crafts have a special place in my heart both as my
main hobby and as part of my expertise due to years of studies in all parts of
this field.
