About us

Welcome to Geotr@ns, your geosciences resource and freelance German-English translation service. Please take some time to look around the site. I have put a few little things together which may be of use.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or suggestions, or would like a translation quote. I also look forward to hearing from agencies interested in quality translations. Please see the Contact page or the Services page for details.

About Alan Johnson

I am a qualified vehicle mechanic and indentured central heating and ventilation engineer. I have lived and worked in Germany since 1978 (including military service but with one or two short breaks) and was already acting as a military translator and interpreter in 1982. I now concentrate on translations only.

I have been a Geological Engineer (Staatlich Geprüfter Geologietechniker) since July 1999, which explains some of my specialist translation areas. Please see the Services page for details.
