Okay, let’s tackle this. So Scott Reid has native English proficiency, which is a plus. German language skills are also valuable, but limited working proficiency might impact the rate. Location in the Greater Minneapolis-St. Paul Area is also a factor. For a native English speaker with some German skills, I'd estimate a lower rate, around $40–$60 per hour. Considering the location, I'll set the rate at $45, which is slightly above the lower end of the range.
