Bio

I graduated in Letters: English and Portuguese and made a post-grade in Spanish. Despite having been living in Brazil for the last 15 years, I am a native of Spain. Therefore, I can manage 3 languages quite well; I can have conversations, write, and read in all of them perfectly. I’ve been working as a language teacher for 8 years. Private and public teaching centers were where I offered this service. Besides this, I’ve obtained certificates in Hebrew, Braille, and Libras for deaf students. I enjoy languages and translation. Because of my time teaching languages, I have a lot of experience in attending to customers for analyzing and translating texts. I’m currently translating from English the Machine Translation course with Smartling CAT tool. At the same time, I am teaching foreign languages to a former client in Vitória da Conquista, ACIDE. A master’s degree in Educational Psychology I studied for helped me to develop special teachings for special education in ACIDE. It’s being a great experience, but I prefer to grow in translation knowledge. Some specialization fields in translation I work for are education, literature, business, health, construction, and religion. My professional capability is constantly growing. I realized recently important courses for the translation profession, like:

Healthcare Data Security, Privacy, and Compliance - https://www.coursera.org/account/accomplishments/certificate/J5YE3P5BUW7K;

Amazon Translate Documents _ - https://www.coursera.org/account/accomplishments/certificate/3YEZG9SEBFVA. 

Learn All About Creating Subtitles (SRT) and Closed-Captions,

I am a responsible and hard worker easygoing translation freelancer waiting for an opportunity to demonstrate my fidelity.



I am looking forward to accomplishing any translation project you need.


Sincerely,

Luis Augusto Borrego

Freelancer Translator EN/SP/PT
