Hi, I’m Paula-Jane Martin, the voice in your ear!  

As an experienced interpreter in Bern, I have been combining expertise, quality and reliability in language and communication for more than 15 years.

I provide professional interpreting services in Bern and throughout Switzerland for conferences, meetings, training sessions, hearings and events that require a bridge between languages and cultures. My expertise includes simultaneous interpreting.

I am also happy to lend my voice as a professional speaker or prepare content for your training and professional development programmes.

Services I Offer

“The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter. It is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.”

Mark Twain

I will always aim for the right word within the appropriate context and the correct cultural interpretation. The difference between the right word and the almost right word is sometimes huge. “Almost right” isn’t sufficient, I want your terms, your language and your world – so that the lightning hits its target!

Interpretation

Physical on-site, online, hybrid, booth or tour guide system – we can always look at and discuss the possibilities, and I will be happy to advise you on this. There are solutions for every case, and together we will find the one that suits you best.
