Language is my passion.
Learning and using a language involves more than carrying out a mathematical conversion of words from one language to another. Equally important is to learn, experience and understand the culture behind the language.
Throughout my career I have worked as a tour guide in many different countries and with customers from all over Europe. This was how I began to get interested in languages.
My skills in the German language were developed while working in Germany for Mercedes-Benz as a Customer Services Representative.
I was also lucky enough to spend 10 years in England, where I had a great opportunity to experience English culture and use English as my day-to-day language.
Now my passion is my profession...

I spent 20 years as an aircraft technician in the Royal Air Force.
My first 12 years were spent as a mechanical and electrical technician and I primarily worked on offensive and defensive aircraft systems. Latterly, as part of an R&D team, I was responsible for writing and proofreading complex technical procedures.
In my final 8 years in the RAF I was a manager in various roles including Logistical IT Manager, Training Manager and Aircraft Maintenance Manager.  In these roles I discovered the rewards of instructing and supporting people.
After leaving the RAF I worked for 4 years with NATO as a Consultant Project Manager where English was the primary language. I learned how to teach English and carried out a huge amount of proofreading, translation and teaching in support of the non-native-speaking soldiers and civilians.
