Spanish Translator

Having grown up and lived in Spain for 18 years, I acquired both Spanish and English as a mother tongue. I am a Registered Court Interpreter for the State of Tennessee. I have done work as a translator and interpreter for the University of Memphis Criminal Justice Dept., TEIS (Tennessee Early Intervention System), and the TN Department of Child Services among others. My primary work is as a corporate ESL and Spanish language instructor.

I am not only a native Spanish speaker, but culturally competent as well. Being completely bilingual, I am able to translate the ideas and nuances of both languages better than one who has acquired either English or Spanish as a second language. I do not just transliterate from one language to another, but instead relay the message with absolute fidelity in the most natural and appropriate language and diction for the target audience.

I specialize in educational resources and legal documents. I offer quality service with the highest level of competence. Rates will vary depending on the nature of the document and urgency for completion.

  Jonathan always received great reviews of his interpretation skills from the clients he worked with for us. His promptness, detailed follow up and commitment to the project makes him a great candidate for interpretation projects English to Spanish and Spanish to English.

  Jonathan is a fantastic interpreter and translator. I have hired him to work on a couple of research projects and he did an excellent job. He is conscientious, heard-working, and especially competent. He is also fast. Sometimes translators take far too long not Jonathan. I wholeheartedly recommend Jonathan for your small or large task.
