About Me
When I started my professional language services business in 2008, I chose as a tagline ‘Enabling Understanding’. To me, this expressed the driving vision behind my translation, interpreting and teaching services.
Depending on the student’s age and aims, I always try to teach using a variety of appropriate resources to create a lively and enjoyable lesson.
