Find out what it means to have a qualified English-German translator translate or proofread your document and that it needn’t cost the earth. You’ll find details on my translation and translation proofreading services from English to German or German to English for both business and private clients.  

My name is Johanne Ostendorf.  I am a qualified English-German translator and a native German speaker based in the UK. I pride myself on delivering a personalised professional service that is reliable, cost-effective and delivered on time … as I have done since 1994.

The translation of a short business email or the translation of a very personal letter are both important to you. So are the contents of your website or your dissertation, your company brochures or your autobiography. For all of these translations you will need a competent and reliable translator to convey the message and style of your marketing materials or capture the “feel” of your personal document in the other language.

Please see my client comments under Testimonials as well as my English-German Project Examples.

You have had your company website or other important business documents translated but how do you know for sure that the translation is free of errors and that the style of the translation matches your source documents?

You have written your dissertation in your second language but you are not sure whether you overlooked spelling mistakes, phrased it eloquently enough or kept a consistent style? I can check your translation thoroughly for you. Better safe than sorry!

The difference between an average translation and an excellent one is little in terms of cost but massive in terms of benefit. A top quality translation will not only get the message across properly but really makes you look good.

Each translation, whether it’s a single email or the translation of a whole website, is an opportunity to impress customers or clients who speak a different language … and that translates into increased sales.

Maybe you are a student who needs to deliver an eloquently phrased accurate assignment or dissertation in your second language? Or perhaps you are a pensioner who wants to keep in touch with extended family abroad that doesn’t speak your language? Or again, maybe you need to prepare a wedding speech in the language the relatives of your son’s bride are speaking?

I can give you a professional English and German translation or translation proofreading service for all your non-commercial needs at a price you can afford.
