Thank you for this course! I studied Conference Interpreting at the university, but trainings particularly in humanitarian contexts were not offered. I want to access the field of humanitarian interpreting and I am glad that TWB is giving me that opportunity, also in a wide and inclusive range of languages.

Hi, I’m Giorgia and I decided to take this course because I just graduated in Translation and Interpreting and I’m thinking about studying a Social Translation and Mediation master!

Thanks for offering this course! I’m Rafael, translator and English teacher from Brazil and I’m thrilled to start this course, I love to share knowledge, so this course is perfect for what I’m professionally looking for.

Hi!
I am a translator and interpreter. I currently work for a public school in the US. It is important for me to deepen my understanding and knowledge of the linguistic and social realities of lesser-heard communities.
I hope to learn a lot from this course. Thanks!

Hello,
My name is Kati Aguilera and I am 28 years old. I am working on my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education and I used to do translating and interpreting for the school I worked at as well as for the church I used to go to. I feel like I have a lot more to learn when it comes to interpreting and translating on a deeper, more personal level and I am looking forward to learning from these courses as well as from my peers. These are skills that I can hone and carry into my career with me, because there may be families that are unfamiliar with the English language, but they also need to know what is going on in their child’s class.

Thank you so much for this opportunity. I am a certified English tutor, and I volunteer in my free time.
It is always important to learn something new.
