Bio
I am a Spanish>English translator who has recently completed an MA in Translation and Interpreting. I am fluent in both Spanish and English having lived in Spain for over 6 years. I started translating in 2005 and now I specialise in academic translations; I have worked for clients such as the University of Cordoba where I translated papers and articles to be published in renowned peer- reviewed journals.

These translations covered various disciplines, and were usually of a technical nature. I have also translated websites, audio guides, legal documents, and engineering works. My background is in History (Modern, Economic and Social History mainly) and Economics and Finance and I have recently completed a course in Economics and Economic Change.

I currently teach English for academic and specific purposes at the University of Southampton, which includes legal English, as well as English for Health Science and Business Studies students. This job involves teaching the use of discipline-specific terminology as well as how to write different types of academic texts at a university. I have taught legal English for over 3 years now, and I have taught business English for over 7 years.
