Translators Platform

Tanja Van Dooren

Who am I?

I obtained my Master’s in Translation at the Hogeschool-Universiteit Brussel in 2006 and completed my teacher training afterwards. I have been working as a self-employed (sworn) translator, interpreter and language trainer ever since. As a native speaker of Dutch, I deal with the (sworn) translations from English, French, Portuguese and Spanish into Dutch at Translators Platform.

I have always dreamt of living and working abroad. My dream came true when I first moved to Valencia and then to Salamanca and Granada where I learnt to speak Spanish fluently. I also studied Spanish and English literature at The University of Sheffield for seven months, participating in the Erasmus Programme. I also got to know the Moroccan culture and language in Rabat, Morocco’s capital. Nowadays, I still travel very often to friends and family in Spain and Portugal where I have found my second home.

Speciality

Translations from Dutch into English, French, Portuguese and Spanish and vice versa and between those languages:

• General texts: diplomas, CVs, birth and marriage certificates, minutes, articles of association.
• Academic texts: papers, lectures and thesis
• Corporate communication: websites, blogs, flyers and leaflets.
• Language training English, Spanish and Dutch for non-native speakers of Dutch at work or at home.
