Bio
After graduating in English - Degree in literature and civilization - I obtained a Master's Degree in Multilingual Lexicology and Terminology,Translation in Lyon-II University. I also passed a post-graduate degree in Education (language teaching and learning), Lyon-I-IUFM.


I have always thought that learning a language implies a lot of practising with natives. So, I spent all together 3 years in various English-speaking countries: England (London), then Scotland (Glasgow) and finally Canada (Hamilton, near Toronto).


I am particulary fond of the English and the French languages. I love finding out more every day about all the English varieties and the different English-speaking cultures. I love playing with words, making a translated text sound French. I taught translation to first-year students for a year in a city very close to Paris.


I specialize in environmental issues, sustainable development as well as education. I used to teach French as a Second Language at university level (2 years). I have taught English to French-speaking students for 4 years.


I have been a freelance translator for 18 months. I have already translated various documents: newsletters, user manuals, websites, documentary scripts, environmental reports, etc.
