Get professional undefined to undefined translation services

Already while studying my bachelor and Master's degree in translation, I got a few translation projects, mainly in the field of audiovisual translation. After my graduation, I started to profile as a literary translator + a translator of (popular) science books. Other than literary and audiovisiaul translation, I have experience with translating various manuals/handbooks and general texts. Apart from translating, I have spent the last 10 years giving language classes. My students usually make quite a big progress within a small amount of time, and start really using the language.

4 years experience with translations, post-editing, subtitling and transcribing, both English-Czech and Czech-English.

My name is Lada Zahlavova and I was born on 5th January 1981 in The Czech Republic. Languages have been my passion since the very childhood and so has been also biology and writing. I have been a freelancer since 2010. before that period I worked as a tour guide and a travel agency assistant. My main branches are teaching and translating. I have been translating professionally since 2011. Since then, I have translated almost 80 thousand words of various documents. I focus mainly on Electrotechnic, legal, IT- technology, medical and food industry. Concerning of the text materials, I am able to translate a website content, marketing texts, booklets, manuals and such forms of texts like product labels and lists of ingredients. :-D

I work as translator since 2008. My daily capacity is approx 2,000 - 3,000 words for translation, resp. 5,000 words for proofreading. It depends on the text. During my translation career I have worked with user manuals, technical documents, financial statements, computer games, marketing materials like PR, HR documens, leaflets, surveys, web pages, sport interviews, personal letters, books, travel guides etc...

I am a multi-skilled, qualified translator with excellent communication skills and an academic background in language studies and economics. Flexible in the ability to adapt to challenges when they arise and with previous experience in both business and the not-for-profit sector. I am a quality-oriented translator who delivers accurate translations to set deadlines. The fact that I have been living and working in an English-speaking country for the past nine years enables me to translate with great precision. I believe it is crucial that translated and localized content looks, sounds and reads as natural as the original. I understand the importance of not only conveying the meaning but also the tone of the original content.
