I am a non-native English teacher, lecturer and researcher living and working in Lyon, France. My mother tongue is Romanian. I am specialized in legal English and compared legal languages (English, French, Romanian, Portuguese and Spanish) in particular, but I also teach English law, the European Union institutions, English for human rights, English for communication, business English, medical terminology and general English at the University of Lyon. I obtained my PhD in 2007 at the University of Lyon on the question of the influence of the French legal language and culture in Europe, more precisely in Romania, Portugal and within the institutions of the European Union, as confronted to the English language. I am an associated member of the CRTT (Centre for research in terminology and translation) at the University Lumière Lyon2. Previously, I had been a legal interpreter and translator with the European Commission during Romania’s pre-accession to the European Union.
