You need to proofread descriptions and in-game texts for 7 educational games (see attached zip file). Work amount: 16.5k words BUT you should NOT just skim the Excel files searching for grammar errors. Instead you should first play thru the games (download links provided in the attached zip file), and each time you see an error or imperfection -> find that string in the Excel file and correct it. You should correct any grammar errors or any text which is out of context or doesn't fit well the tasks of the game or what's shown on the screen. After that, you need to go thru the Excel files once again and check the strings you didn't see while playing the game (cuz some of the strings you may miss during your playthrough). The game descriptions are simple txt files and should be pretty easy to proofread. The texts are generally of an OK quality already but I received complaints from French users that French translation has grammar and inconsistency errors. This needs to be fixed. Please only native speakers with excellent French grammar!

Hello, I have already worked for your company: I translated and tested 7 games 7 months ago (Cat and Dog, Jigsaw for girls, Boots story, Cinderella, Bus story, Alien story, Hedgehog 2). I would be very happy to help you again by testing/proofreading these games. To briefly remind you of my career: I am a professional EN>FR video games translator, with 8 years experience and a MA in translation. I have been a localization tester in the past and have experience in checking the consistency, length of the text, etc. You can learn more about me on my LinkeIn page here: [login to view URL] Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to use my services again.

As French mother tongue, I studied as well in France (Metz) as in Germany (Humboldt University of Berlin), and so I studied two Masters (Information-Communication and Languages. I gathered my translating experience through the various working positions I occupied in different sectors: The French Press Agency AFP (Berlin office) where part of my work was translating articles and press reviews, Italian Tour Operators (texts creation and translation for web contents, catalog contents) into French, Italian, German and English. I lately started to work as freelance translating Legal (contracts, agreements), Finance (financial statement, bank transfer documents), technical (construction equipment, spare parts of heating machines, user manual for blue tooth device), medical (migraine treatment, dental care), research (scientific webinars), marketing (survey), real estate and hotel furniture, websites contents for various thematic. I’ve been living in Italy since 2008 and speak fluent Italian. The languages I work with are English, German, Italian into French and into Italian. My experience about very different thematic gave me the exigency of double checking each specific terminology. I work with the paper and electronic dictionaries, no cat tools, then I think the software can't substitute the human competence.
