proofreading

Since 2000 I have been offering translations from English into German as well as proofreading and editing. We work competently and adhere to deadlines – from the cost estimate to the delivery of the text. My services include, but are not limited to, the following: quotations, tenders, book reviews, acknowledgements, e-mails, essays, questionnaires, instructions for use, interviews, corrections, manuscripts, marketing research surveys, employee newsletters, presentations, press reports, product information, brochures, quality assurance systems, training material, transcription, websites and newspaper articles.

Sandra Pontow is a Certified Financial Translator. Before opening her office, she lived and worked in the United States for several years.

German is her mother tongue, English her passion.

Der Standard | Jan 1, 2023

Daniel Litvin

The World’s Stake in American Democracy

Die Presse | Jan 30, 2023

Richard Haass

Djoomat Ortobaev

Many of the 700,000 Russians who have fled Vladimir Putin’s “partial mobilization” have relocated to former Soviet republics like Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, and Georgia.
