Hi everybody. I would like to attend a course in Great Britain or Ireland to improve my English for my job. I have been mainly a teacher, but I started working as a translator and interpreters 3 years ago and I like this job very much!! I would like to make it my main job because teaching is becoming quite boring to me...but that is another question... Has anybody attended special courses? thank u in advance. Elena | | |

Hello, I'm starting this topic again. Anyway, I'm from Croatia, I teach English at school and I am also a translator (English-Croatian and vice versa). I'm looking for a summer course somewhere in Britain, just to improve my language skills. Can you recommend some courses that you attended and that were useful to you? Thank you! | | |

Does anyone know of any summer courses in Spain for Spanish > English translators? I've seen one at Tandem, but it has a large focus on sworn translation and runs at an inconvenient time for me. All the others I've come across are for English > Spanish. Any ideas? Thanks! | |

Any Turkish courses? | Jun 8, 2013 |
Hi everybody! I am studying Turkish as I would like to add it to my combination. Do you know if there is any Turkish course for interpreters? I already have a MA in Conference Interpreting and I think that applying again to a university would be a waste of time... Thanks Caterina | | |
