Katherine Dufour Gonzales
Being a translator is more than my profession; it is my passion.
Languages
I offer professional language services in the following language combinations: English to French, German to French, French to English, German to English.
French: Canada & France
English: Canada & USA
German: Germany
Education
I hold a Master degree in European-American Studies from the Universität Regensburg, in Germany as well as a double Bachelor degree in Langues étrangères appliquées from the Université de Nice Sophia Antipolis in Nice, France and in Deutsch-Französische Studien from the Universität Regensburg. I am also completing a Bachelor degree in Translation Studies from the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières.
Cross-cultural
Providing linguistic services is more than just translating from A to B. It is crucial to understand the culture that comes with the language we are translating into. Due to my international experience in several countries, I take great importance in cross-cultural communication in my work. Understanding cultural differences is key when it comes to communicating in several languages.
Linguistic Tools
What is the key to delivering accurate and professional linguistic services? I use a myriad of linguistic tools to hand error-free documents, i.e. SDL Trados 2019, Antidote, Verifika, etc.
