Hello, my name is Paul O’Brien and I’m 49 years old. I’m originally from Ireland but have been living in Italy since 1994. I have worked as a language teacher and as a part-time university lecturer in Italian and modern European history both in Ireland and Italy.
At present I earn a living primarily as an Italian-English translator but am available for limited teaching work. In my free time I read, go running with a local club, train with weights at home, do Argentine tango and occasionally play chess. These days, however, I dedicate as much time as possible to practicing piano, which I have taken up again after a 27 year break.
For more about translation or proofreading projects, please go here. Further information on English teaching can be found by visiting this page. Details of my academic background are available at this link, whereas information on my book and other publications can be found here. Finally, please feel free to download my CV in English or Italian. Thank you very much for visiting this site.
