Bio

With advanced skills in writing and translation, combined with a detail-oriented curiosity about the subject at hand, I look forward to being your next translator! Throughout my working life, language has been a tool for deepening my knowledge in different areas:

    Since I started my freelance translation business, I have translated academic papers, website material, commercials, and subtitles. 

While working at the University of Gothenburg, my background in social science research combined with excellent writing skills resulted in the publication of scientific reports and articles in both English and Swedish.

Being an author, my language skills are advanced and I always apply a unique combination of structure and creativity to my work.

I have extensive experience in writing and translating press releases, information material and debate articles. These experiences and engagements are assets that I am now excited to bring to your team! 

As the testimonials below confirm, I always deliver high-quality translations in a precise and timely manner. Your team will benefit from my organisational proficiency and creative approach, as well as my communicative and collaborative skills.

When you have a suitable project you need translated into Swedish, please contact me and I will help you out. The first 300 words are on the house!

All the best,
Karin Hallberg


TESTIMONIALS

Karin is a responsible, efficient and conscientious translator with excellent command of the English language. I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I wholeheartedly recommend Karin for any translation work. Her exceptional writing skills as a writer and poet, combined with her impressive memory and sharp intellect, make her an outstanding translator. Having had the privilege of working closely with her during her time as a research assistant at Gothenburg University, I've witnessed firsthand her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication to her craft. Karin's unique ability to capture nuances and convey meaning across languages is truly commendable. Her translations are not just accurate, but they also carry the essence of the original text, showcasing her deep understanding of language and culture. If you're seeking a translator who is both skilled and passionate, Karin is the ideal choice.

Karin Hallberg worked at the Swedish Dockworkers Union 2018—2021. One of her main working tasks was to translate debate articles and written information on labour issues between Swedish and English. Karin moves comfortably between languages, and always completes her tasks in a timely manner and with great accuracy. I can warmly recommend hiring Karin for translation assignments and other tasks related to text production.
