Soňa Malečková cooperated with me throughout 2015 on an investment project, which was realized for us by an Italian supplier. During the entire period, Soňa was professional and always managed to accommodate all of our needs. Her interpreting and translation skills convinced me that in future I would cooperate with her again.

We have been working with Barbora since 2014. She provides consecutive interpretation between Czech and English at meetings with high-ranking Czech civil servants and members of Parliament. She is a true professional who comes perfectly prepared for every meeting and delivers the highest quality interpreting. I would recommend her to anybody without the slightest hesitation.

Monika Matyáštíková, Head of Public Affairs, Grayling CZ

Barbora Tite interpreted Timothy Snyder’s lecture which was hosted by People in Need in 2015 as well as the debate at the launch of the Prague Civil Society Centre. We were very happy with the job she did. Barbora is extremely reliable and her interpretation was praised by the participants of both events. We will certainly continue to use her services in the future.

Anna Žilková

The idea of the perfect interpreter or translator is the following: you don’t have to check their work and you have confidence in their professional skills; people reading their translations or listening to their interpreting commend their work and say that they are really good. Add agreeable manners and individual approach and you can be sure that this is exactly what Jinými slovy are about. Our “Bliss without Risk” organization has worked with Barbora Tite, Anna Žilková and Jakub Jurenka and thanks to them we know what professional and quality interpreting looks like. Thank you on behalf of the whole “Bliss without Risk” team.
Barbora Pšenicová, project manager, Bliss without Risk

Quality, professionalism, speed, readiness and reliability are the main reasons why we work with Anna Žilková. She is able to cope with difficult, highly technical texts, which are an integral part of our job. We look forward to continuing our cooperation!
Monika Horáková, Mettler-Toledo CZ & SK

Anna Žilková is a 100% reliable interpreter who is really nice to work with. Her simultaneous interpreting of live radio broadcasts is always very elegant, sensitive and informationally accurate. It happened to us several times that our international guests asked us for her contact information so that they could call her whenever they are back in the Czech Republic.

Pavla Voltrová was very cooperative, willing to learn, thorough and deadline-conscious. She proved to be open to new tasks, hard-working and reliable. The quality of her output was comparable to that of in-house translators at the DGT.

We used Katerina’s interpreting services during a recent series of hospital department site visits in the Czech Republic – which is part of a major international research project. Katerina is a good and reliable interpreter. Additionally, she has a highly professional approach, a good “sense of situation” and ability to interpret proficiently even within complex research areas. These are key abilities with any interpreter that we work with. We can warmly recommend her.
Jeff Svane, World Health Organization

Katerina worked as an interpreter at one of our workshops – the topic of the workshop was quite complicated and there was also a lively discussion between our Czech participants and Irish guests. Katerina was perfectly prepared, but she also reacted smoothly to any unexpected situation, her interpretation was flawless – our Irish guests were very happy with the service she provided and said it was their best experience with an interpreter from English to another language. I can strongly recommend Katerina to anyone who needs a reliable interpreter with very high level of language knowledge.
Marie Heřmanová, People in Need

Katerina provided my company very technical interpretation from English to Czech on an extremely important security matter. She was timely, was dressed very appropriately and professionally and extremely polite and kind. Katerina’s introductions of each of the delegations expressed each of our hopes for a good relationship and a positive discussion. The topics she interpreted were highly technical and involved design and engineering. She did very well and both Czech and American parties had a good understanding of what could be accomplished.

The Football Association of the Czech Republic regularly works with Romana Bičíková during the national team’s matches, on press conferences and other events requiring interpretation from and into the English language. The Czech FA has always been more than satisfied with the services provided and values Miss Bičíková’s professionalism. The collaboration will no doubt continue in the future.
Martin Gregor, Football Association of the Czech Republic

Romana Bičíková has interpreted several press conferences for FC Viktoria Plzeň. She has fulfilled the high standards set by the UEFA supervising bodies in both English and Spanish interpretation, and it was especially thanks to her professionalism and resourcefulness that the press conference prior to the FC Viktoria Plzeň-FC Barcelona Champions League match was acknowledged as the best media meeting of the round. Miss Bičíková has also translated several official documents for the club and we have always been absolutely satisfied with her work. She is a true professional with an interest in the topic and utmost reliability.
Pavel Pillár, FC Viktoria Plzeň

Romana Bičíková is one of our best YA translators. We have been working together for a long time and I know that I can always rely on her not only when it comes to keeping to a deadline, but also when it comes to the quality of her work. It is a joy to read her translations, because she has a knack for the language of the youth, which is paramount in translating Young Adult literature.

The Football Association of Czech Republic cooperated with Sebastian Aguas during the UEFA European Championship qualifying round on Septemper 2nd and 3rd 2015 when the Czech Republic played against Kazakhstan. Sebastian Aguas worked perfectly as a consecutive interpreter for us both at official press conferences before and after the match and during the festive lunch attended by representatives from both football associations, the President of the Pilsen Region and the Kazakh Ambassador. The Football Association of Czech Republic was very pleased with all services provided by Sebastian Aguas and with his very professional attitude. In case of further interpreting demand, the Football Association will further cooperate with him

Martin Gregor, The Football Association of Czech Republic

In 2015, we installed a new machine manufactured in China. Due to the fact that the technicians from China spoke only Chinese, Mr. Aguas provided for the interpreting and took care after the technicians when their working day ended. The machine was installed successfully and we were pleased with Mr. Aguas´ interpreting and really recommend him.

Miroslav Koumar, Miro

In September 2014, Mr. Aguas cooperated with our company as an interpreter for Chinese technicians during the installation and implementation of a new technology for corrugated cardboard production; a cutting machine and flexography production line. His service was of high professional quality and we were very pleased with it. Based on our experience we recommend Mr. Aguas.
