English to Polish Translator

I am a bilingual speaker of Polish (native) and English (near-native) with a master degree in Translation, bachelor degree in English and over 18 years of experience as a full time freelance translator. I have lived in the UK for 8 years and Spain for 6 years. I am currently back in Poland (since 2023).

I am looking for type of projects that give me a sense of fulfilment (done in service of others).

I have recently completed a large voluntary translation for a charity (Compassion Prison Project) that gave me a lot of satisfaction. 

My main specialisation is Medical translations, but I regularly work in the fields of Business, Financial, Legal and Marketing translations. During the last eighteen years I have developed a range of specialised dictionaries which facilitate my work greatly together with my own Quality Assurance Process, which I apply to each assignment that I undertake.

I am dedicated to providing high quality language services at excellent prices. Prior to becoming a translator, I had worked as an English teacher (2005-2008) and an English tutor/translator (2008-2009). Having lived in the United Kingdom since 2008 gives me in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience of the English language and culture.


I have been performing a variety of language services that include:
Translation; Editing and/or Proofreading; Transcription; Subtitling; Transcreation; Software and Website localisation.


Having exceptionally great attention to details, I am a very scrupulous translator able to work efficiently under constant deadline pressure. Although I work best on my own initiative, I do enjoy being part of a team. My eminent people skills and hard work always made me stand out among other employees. Consequently, both my colleagues as well as customers expressed great satisfaction while working with me throughout my various employments. I am very enthusiastic about my job and I treat every single translation project with due respect and professionalism. I am highly organised, accurate, punctual as well as flexible, which gives me advantage over other translators. Having excellent research and comprehension skills ensures that each of my services is to the highest standards and of first-rate quality.

Being a constantly self-developing person, I am doing a massage course as well as studying nutrition, various alternative medicine therapies and learning Spanish. I have recently finished an art therapy instructor course (9 months) and I'm happily organising art therapy workshops for local communities (as a side project).

Thank you! I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
