Bio
Hello!
I am a native Finnish speaker and a full-time freelance translator since 2008, based in France. I have a Master's Degree in French and English Translation Studies from the University of Turku, Finland.
Having previously worked as a project coordinator in a translation agency, I know that punctuality and reliability are crucial for outsourcers. In addition, I have had the chance to accomplish two traineeships at the DG Translation of the European Commission, so I know something about how big international organisations operate, too.
During my years as a freelance translator, I have translated a wide range of texts. My special fields include EU, training and education (adults and youth), public relations, business, logistics, forestry, environment and agriculture. In addition to the usual Word and Excel files, I have also translated e.g. educational videos as well as complex training packages containing PP presentations, text books, videos, games, posters and more.
I also provide writing and editing services in Easy-to-Read Finnish language (selkokieli). More details in Finnish below.
In addition to written communication, I do desktop publishing using Adobe InDesign, so I can provide you with a ready-to-publish product in Finnish.
I'm always glad to help, so don't hesitate to contact me!
Kind regards,
Hanna

Selkokieli
Tarjoan käännöspalveluiden lisäksi myös selkokielen palveluita: selkomukauttamista ja -kirjoittamista.
Olen tutustunut selkokielen periaatteisiin Selkokeskuksen kursseilla. Sain osaamisestani ilahduttavaa tunnustusta syksyllä 2022, kun kirjoittamani selkonovelli valittiin Selkokeskuksen Ilo-kirjoituskilpailun parhaimmistoon. Opike julkaisee sen vuonna 2023 ilmestyvässä selkonovellikokoelmassa.
Olen saanut käytännön tuntumaa selkokielen käyttöön ja käyttäjiin toimimalla vapaaehtoisena S2-opettajana Pariisin Suomi-koululla, Ranskassa, vuodesta 2012. Olen tänä aikana selkomukauttanut ja -kirjoittanut oppilailleni runsaasti erilaisia lukutekstejä, niin kaunokirjallisuutta kuin tietotekstejäkin. Oppilaani ovat 10-15-vuotiaita ulkosuomalaisia, joista useimmat ovat aina asuneet Ranskassa.
Minulle on tärkeää, että luotettava asiatieto ja kirjallisuuselämykset ovat jokaisen ulottuvilla.
