Adriana Allende (translator)

(8)

Argentinian Primary School Teacher highly interested in Literature. Over twenty years of teaching Spanish and English as a foreign language. Plenty of practice in translation for educational purposes. Literature lover.

After earning a BA with majors and graduating as a Primary School Teacher, I studied Arts in the National Institute of Arts IUNA and worked as a teacher in my own studio. I also got my Proficiency in English Certificate from Cambridge University and was employed for ten years as a Teacher of English as a Foreign Language in a local Cultural Inglesa, which is an Institution that belongs to the British Council and I did translations on the side. I occasionally taught Literature in high schools as it is within the competence of my degree and it is a Subject that I have always enjoyed.

I consider myself an amateur freelance translator willing to experience my knowledge of literary resources while translating any piece of work into Spanish or from Spanish to English. Clients can rest assured in the knowledge that their personal work of art will be translated in a manner that reflects their individuality and preserves their tone and authorial voice. 

I have a flexible timetable and can devote thirty hours a week to a translation project. I would love to help new or unknown English speaking authors to be read in my country or anywhere in my mother tongue, Spanish, as well as make it possible for people from Argentina or any Latinamerican country to publish in English.
