Congratulations to @AmyColman1984 for successfully defending her dissertation on ‘Translation product evaluation in translator training’! An interesting finding: in her study looking at L1 Dutch and L2 English BA students (n=32), L2 translation quality was slightly better than L1

Today marks the start of a new chapter. I am joining @UMmalta as a full-time Assistant Lecturer in the Translation, Terminology and Interpreting Studies department, where I will coordinate the Interpreting programme. To say this is a dream come true is an understatement.
