Hi, my name is Bridget van de Grootevheen and I like to puzzle with language. My native language is Dutch. I am the owner of Bridget's translations & texts and translate from German and English to Dutch and from Dutch to English. My focus areas are marketing and education. I also write copy for these audiences and work as a consecutive interpreter in the social domain. I also teach 1:1 English classes to Dutch people. The most fascinating about my work is that no day is the same and I get to see all kinds of different places.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Veel Nederlanders zeggen dat ze goed Engels kunnen, maar dat blijkt niet altijd het geval. Als je een aardig woordje spreekt betekent dat niet dat je een hele website kan aanpassen en vertalen met het oog op de nieuwe doelgroep. Ik hoor ook vaak terug van klanten dat ze het zelf wel hadden kunnen schrijven of zeggen, maar niet op zo’n vloeiende en passende manier als dat ik het voor ze heb gedaan. Dat is toch wel belangrijk als de boodschap die je wilt overbrengen op het spel staat.<\/p>


I'd be happy to work with you as a translator, interpreter or teacher. With my educational background, experience as an English teacher and writing and translating marketing texts, you can rest assured that I will take care of your work. Are you looking for a oroactive freelance translator you can rely on?<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
