Ilan B.
Dutch-English Translator | Political & Social Science
I'm a native Dutch and bilingual English speaker studying Political Science at Ghent University, specialising in translation, transcription, and proofreading across academic, political, and general content. My background in political and social sciences means that I understand the terminology and context behind texts that I translate, as I'm experienced in academic writing in both languages. In the past I have completed translation and transcription work on Upwork, including the translation of a full questionnaire for the International Observatory of Innovation, a 26-article proofreading project, and a German news article rewrite. I'm available on a flexible, as-needed basis, and typically respond within a day.
