“I met Pili in her role as one of the main translators for a highly sensitive project in which I was tasked with proofreading the work of the whole translation team. This project lasted for almost a year, during which time we had the chance to work and communicate daily.
Her thorough and extremely creative approach was key in achieving a very high level of quality. Many of Pili’s ideas and contributions became the standard by which the whole team would approach successive batches of the project. I personally learned from her a few very elegant ways of solving translation difficulties and my own translation work has improved as a result.
The level of creativity and the human touch delivered by Pili is an extremely valuable asset that will benefit anyone using her services. I fully recommend her Spanish translation services to anyone who values the time, intelligence and satisfaction of their prospective readers in Spanish”.

“If you are looking for a top-notch reviewer and want your final publication to shine and flow, don’t hesitate to contact Pili. I am in my second year of collaboration with her, and I am learning so much with her. She is experienced, very knowledgeable, patient, and always there if you have any doubts”.

“I hired Pili to translate some pages of my website into Spanish because I was looking for a creative translator that would work with me to achieve a great result. Pili proved to be an extraordinarily detail-oriented translator. She cares about getting every aspect of your translation right and she’ll leave no stone unturned until you’re happy with the terminology choices, style and tone. I cannot recommend her highly enough and she will be my go-to translator for future projects of this kind.”

“After revising several of Pili’s translations, I can certify that she is a true professional. Punctual and meticulous, she conducts in-depth research (a must in culinary translation), incorporates additional information to fill cultural gaps and adapts to the demands of each text. Her bilingualism is another great asset since she has a perfect command of the Spanish and British languages and cultures, something crucial when translating culinary texts, where cultural-specific concepts crop up that are extremely difficult to transfer from one language to another. Thanks to her cultural and linguistic expertise, Pili easily surmounts this obstacle, producing natural, easy to read and understand texts. She is also responsible, friendly, courteous and diligent and I have no hesitation in recommending her work”.

“Pili is a reliable, highly skilled translator who has offered her time and language skills to our organisation since March 2020. In that time, she has completed various pieces of work across a number of specialised topics, all of which were completed to a very high standard. Pili is a wonderful person to work with, she is responsive, professional and always welcomes feedback on the translation work she completes. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others, she would be an asset to any organisation or project.”

“Pili was a joy to work with. Her excellent English and Spanish translation skills enabled my wife and registrar to follow everything that was said during a meeting where we were giving our notice of marriage. She was able to attend the appointment on such short notice and followed up afterwards to ensure everything was understood. I recommend Pili because she’s professional, delivers and follows up.”
