Pictures from Work

During my assignments, I have had an opportunity to see many parts of Slovenia that I may otherwise never have visited. My work has also taken me around the world: to Roswell (USA), Budapest, Brussels, Strasbourg, Luxembourg, Paris, Berlin, Thessaloniki, Lisbon, Warsaw, Stockholm, London, Bern, The Hague, Sophia, Cluj-Napoca, Bilbao, Düsseldorf, Sardinia, Malta, and so on. My workplaces have been various interpreting booths, offices, conference rooms, government palaces, city halls, farms, vineyards, orchards, factories and shops, castles, fields, mountains, the sea, etc.

Testimonials

"Professional, fast, consistent. Respects the agreements made. Former co-workers know her as “that one who you can dictate a text to in Slovene while she is typing it in English” When I need a really good translation of a technical or specialised text, I always turn to her first! Warmly recommended! "
Peter KUNCDirector, Institute SCIENTIS
"I recommend Mrs Špela Urbas as an interpreter. We are at the beginning of our cooperation, but the project we have realised together has been successful and we will certainly cooperate in the future.”
Kamila KAROLAKInvenire
"MESI operates in the field of the development, sale and manufacture of medical devices. One of the ways we demonstrate the quality of our processes and products is through their conformity with diverse medical standards, and the high-quality translation of our documentation is therefore of paramount importance. We cooperated with Mrs Urbas when we needed our documentation to be translated for our cooperation with the US agency the FDA. The translation was terminologically correct and of high quality, and Mrs Urbas was always prompt and responsive in our communication. We are very happy with her translation services and warmly recommend her."
Teja CERARCEO, MESI, Development of Medical Devices, LTD
"Words have incredible power in written communication, as well. Assembled in the right order and with correct grammar, words can create a message that is like a gift tied with the most beautiful bow. Špela is a master of fine tuning details, and a grand master of translating into English. Our longstanding cooperation and her knowledge of our work (and technical terms) has paid off again and again. The translated texts are a reflection of carefully selected and well-considered words that retain the desired message despite the demanding and specific technical terms. We appreciate her complete dedication and responsiveness. Through her translations and proofreading one can sense her love for the beauty of language – for both the Slovene and the English languages."
Danica BERTONCELJEpilog d.o.o.
"Working to a tight deadline, Špela completed an excellent translation of our Culture Development Strategy of Ljubljana for 2020–2023, actively cooperating with us in seeking out the best language solutions. She delved deeply into the original text in order to understand it in detail, so that the translated text could retain the spirit of the original to the greatest possible extent."
Davor BUINJACSenior Advisor, Department of Culture, City of Ljubljana
"I have been cooperating with Špela for 18 years and I cannot imagine our team without her. The quality of the texts she has translated has been repeatedly affirmed by the contented English editors and demanding authors of the articles for our magazine, as well as by our readers. Through our working together, I have come to regard her as a reliable colleague and a warm person. Indeed, every time we wrap up a project I say, “This is the best team ever!”
Staša BARANJACo-editor of Piranesi magazine
"Since August 2019, Ms Špela Urbas has been a member of the lingoking interpreters team. We thank her in particular for her excellent interpreting services during a two-day event in Essen for a big energy company. Ms Špela Urbas interpreted simultaneously from English to Slovene and demonstrated extensive technical knowledge and a high level of professionalism. We – as well as our customer – were very satisfied with her performance. We would like to thank Ms Špela Urbas for her impeccable, reliable and trustworthy cooperation, and we look forward to further joint projects. We recommend her as a simultaneous interpreter for the language combination English-Slovenian and wish her continued success."
Sandra DOŠENHead of Project Management, Lingoking GmbH, München
"I've had quite a lot of problems with my English. However, since Špela has been helping me I have improved my knowledge and also my grades. We meet regularly on Skype now and I'm getting really good at English."
Ema
"Several months ago, I agreed with Špela to have a trial private lesson with my daughter. They clicked right away and ever since they have had regular lessons. I like it very much that Špela prepares in advance for each lesson, that they only speak English during the lesson, and that she also sends extra exercises to my daughter to do on her own. In a very short time, my daughter has managed to catch up, and now she actually likes learning English, which is reflected in her grades, too."
