Member of ITI (Institute of Translation & Interpreting) MA in Applied Translation Studies (University of Leeds; 2006-07) BA French Studies (University of Leeds; 2001-05) *** Feedback from a satisfied client (19/02/08) *** We gave Christopher Hall a document of some 600 plus lines (some 7,500 words) of subtitles to translate from English into French. Communications with Christopher were smooth; turnaround time was four days, which is fast. This is our longest segment, and the toughest. This is the fastest time that ANYONE has translated this segment into ANY language! We are very happy with Christopher Hall\'s work, and would be glad to do business with him again (Translations for Progress Feedback Forum). After 4 years of doing a French degree in which both French-English and English-French translation featured heavily, I have recently completed an MA in Applied Translation Studies at the University of Leeds. Throughout this one-year intensive course, I became trained in the use of leading CAT tools such as SDL Trados, Passolo, Déjà Vu, OmegaT and Wordfast. I am now a confident user in these tools. I have carried out voluntary translations for organisations such as Cafébabel, PEOI, Global Peacebuilders and Translations for Progress. *** MA Applied Translation Studies (2006-07) - University of Leeds - French-English translation *** BA French Studies (2001-05) - University of Leeds Typewriting speed of 60 wpm.

Throughout my long teaching career, particularly as a high-profile Head of a Modern Languages Department, I have been fanatical about grammatical and spelling accuracy. I am an avid reader (1 book a week on average, alternating between French and English) of contemporary fiction, autobiographies, political memoirs and history and keep up with French current affairs both on the net and by listening to French radio. This, combined with my frequent visits to my home country, has made me become very aware of linguistic trends and gives me the edge when it comes to choosing the appropriate register/terminology when translating a text. I ALWAYS meet deadlines, in fact usually complete all projects with ample time to spare. All I ask of potential clients is to be given the chance to do a test piece, those who do so usually pick me!
