Don’t know where to begin?

My name is Aída Ramos, I translate English, French and Portuguese into SPANISH and I’m a transcreation specialist.

If you need language services, you’ve come to the right place:

I have a BA in English and a Master’s in Translation Studies. In addition, I was an intern at the European Commission, have worked in several international organisations, and have been offering language services with Thinking Side since 2012.

Although I’ve been based in Madrid for several years now, I previously lived in other countries such as Sweden, Ireland, Luxembourg and India – I’m well used to bridging cultural differences! And this is why I consider myself a transcreation specialist.

Why hire me?

Experience

I have more than 10 years of experience under my belt as a freelance translator, plus a couple of years in-house. Over this time, I have translated MILLIONS of words and have dealt with an extensive range of texts. Your words are in safe hands!

Reliability

I like reliable people and I believe in the importance of delivering on one’s promises, so you can be sure I’ll meet all the deadlines we set together. I take your confidentiality as seriously as I take my own, which is why I adhere strictly to all aspects of the General Data Protection Regulation.

Communication

For me, communication is paramount: regular contact throughout a project is vital to making sure everyone is happy. Before starting work, I make sure I know exactly what you’re after, so that our goals are clear. I won’t hesitate to ask you for clarification when needed. While working on the project, I’m here to answer any of your questions by email or by phone, whichever suits you best.

A very human touch

Nobody likes being treated like a machine… or having their texts read as if written by a robot. I’m particularly proud of two things: my relationship with my clients (and the trust they place in me) and how naturally my translations flow. Translation for humans, made by humans!

…Don’t take my word for it…
