Speaking a language is not enough, even when the language is a translator’s mother tongue. Sonia has both the language skills and expertise to keep current with the times, and know how to make use of modern technology, She stick with me till the end and invest 110 percent of her efforts to reach a great result. Julie Oyang, author of BUTTERFLY, A NOVEL

EKOenergy is a pan-European label for electricity launched in 2013. Sonia did a great job in translating several of our webpages (www.ekoenergy.org) and the EKOenergy Licence Agreement from English to Italian. This was very much appreciated by our Italian partners and contacts. Thanks Sonia.

      Dite: “è faticoso frequentare i bambini”. Avete ragione. Poi aggiungete: “perché bisogna mettersi al loro livello, abbassarsi, inclinarsi, curvarsi, farsi piccoli”. Ora avete torto. Non è questo che più stanca. È piuttosto il fatto di essere obbligati ad innalzarsi fino all’altezza dei loro sentimenti. Tirarsi, allungarsi, alzarsi sulla punta dei piedi. Per non ferirli.
