• I’m a freelance Chinese translator in Guangzhou City that has been regarded as being excellent by most clients.
• The aim of my translation/adaptation/copywriting service is to ensure that it is not just technically correct, but engaging and culturally relevant – just like the original.
• I’m a freelance translator but I spend much more time on my translation projects than a translator is supposed to do. My translations tend to be accurate, fluent, and pleasant to read. My translations might need no further review. If you do want to assign someone to review my translation, you will find him or her making easy money.
• Although I don’t run a translation agency, all the files assigned to me would go through the same process as followed by a translation agency: translation-review-proofreading. I do have a team to turn to when the volume of a project is huge. No matter how large your project is and how tight its schedule is, I will be be able to handle it without its quality being compromized.
• The quality of my translations has brought me some popularity. I’m one of the most active English<-> Chinese translators in Guangzhou City. I have worked with numerous translation companies across the world in many fields ( please see below the list of my expertise areas).
• I will make a full commitment to get any task done to my client’s full satisfaction. I want to impress you with my dedication and efficiency. Furthermore, my service fees are not higher than most experienced translators.
• So, try me.
