Currently, I'm collaborating with an agency called " Language Translations Services" by translating, checking, editing, and proofreading student's documents for school (over 20,000 words) in the education and Pedagogy field.

I also have experience translating and subtitling varied content for TED Talks Videos as a volunteer.
