Oliver Grau's Continuing Professional Development

Bio

I am a state-certified German-English translator and a state-recognized education and inclusion professional (Heilerziehungspfleger) based in Bavaria, Germany. In July 2026, I obtained my Bachelor Professional in Translation with honors, and in July 2013, I earned my professional qualification in education.

With a specialization in the humanities, I excel at translating texts on art, architecture, literature, music, culture, history and many other subjects. As a native German speaker with an intuitive feel for language, I deliver natural-sounding, idiomatic translations into German that remain faithful to the tone and spirit of the source text while being precisely tailored to the target audience. If you put your trust in me, you will receive a bespoke translation in which nothing gets lost in translation.

As an education and inclusion professional with more than 10 years of experience, I have extensive knowledge of educational concepts, the idea and importance of social inclusion, and related terminology. Drawing on my practical and theoretical expertise in this field, as well as my professional training as a translator, I am ideally equipped to translate your texts on these topics.

I also offer translations of general texts. Since I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in an additional specialization, I will soon be able to offer professional technical translations as well.

I always work carefully and accurately, and I strive to create translations that feel so natural that readers don't even realize they are reading a translation.

I look forward to working with you!
