These days, communication is of the utmost importance. Every published text is seen as a public representation of the company in question, and it is also important for private individuals to present themselves professionally. Communicating in the native language of your business partners or friends is a sign of respect and helps create a pleasant and open atmosphere.
I would be delighted to assist you with your linguistic requirements, so please do not hesitate to contact me. Whether you need a translation, an interpreter, private language lessons or proofreading services, I will gladly provide you with a personalised quote.
A successful translation project requires not only excellent language skills and a commitment to quality and timely delivery, but also enthusiasm for the subject matter.
I work with the following languages: German, English, French, Finnish, as well as Spanish, Italian and Czech for selected types of text.
I specialise in translating from these languages into my native German and into English. To ensure a high-quality result, I work with qualified, native-speaking external language service providers for translations into the respective foreign languages.
I also speak your language when it comes to conveying your message in a professional manner at small conferences, meetings, conversations or telephone calls with your international business partners.
The human aspect is very important in such conversations, and with linguistic skill and sensitivity, I can quickly establish an unbiased atmosphere and mutual trust.
I offer interpreting services for the language combination German-English. However, French and Finnish in combination with German or English are also available on request.
First impressions count, particularly in business. The same applies to written communication.
If you need high-quality written content for your business communications or website, you've come to the right place. Throughout my professional career and studies, I have gained extensive experience in writing, editing, and revising the style of a wide variety of texts, including academic papers.
I would be delighted to proofread your German texts and give them the finishing touches. My aim is to create texts that are easy to read and fluent, using language that is appropriate for the intended purpose of communication.
Are you preparing for a meeting with business partners or an adventure abroad and in need of language support?
I would be delighted to help you through one-to-one lessons or group sessions with like-minded individuals. I will take your preferences into account and, of course, adapt to your level of proficiency. If you have a particular personal or professional interest, I can also prepare material on a specific subject. My language training courses are always tailored to the individual needs and preferences of participants.
I currently offer language training in German, English, French and Finnish. Depending on your preferences, training can take place at my office, your home, a café or online.
Hello, I'm Alexandra Winkler, an enthusiastic translator, language trainer and adventurer with a passion for travel.
After graduating from commercial college, I first completed a valuable education in tourism. I then gained experience in a variety of fields by working in various companies and industries. Following a few years of professional experience, I completed my studies in transcultural communication with German, French and Spanish as working languages, and also obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Finnish language and culture at the University of Vienna.
Through regular stays abroad in countries such as the UK, France, Spain, Finland and the Czech Republic, I have been able to improve and expand my language skills and gain important international experience. Most importantly, living in many different countries has taught me how to use language to immerse myself in a country's culture and mindset, and build linguistic bridges to bring people closer together.
To recharge my batteries, I often seek the tranquillity of nature. During my walks in the woods, hikes in the mountains and horse riding, I enjoy the silence around me, gathering new strength and inspiration. Quite regularly, I am also drawn to faraway places, and my travels to different countries, filled with activities and new experiences, allow me to continue building linguistic bridges.
In 2016, I turned my hobby into my profession by founding “Alexandra Winkler – Language Services”.
To avoid standing still, I am constantly developing my skills, learning new languages and improving my knowledge through courses and training. In 2020, I also began a Master's programme in Finno-Ugrian Studies, which I successfully completed in March 2023 alongside my work.
I am happy to provide translation, interpreting, proofreading and language training services to companies and individuals.
I offer a professional, reliable service characterised by flexibility, reliability and accuracy.
