Hi Rosa ! Good content!.. thanks for sharing.. Im trying to become an interpreter and one of the feedbacks I've received is lack of English proficiency and every time I take the test with languages companies I get too nervous at the moment of the test.. so I decided to go ahead and develop my English proficiency skills first so I can deal with interpretation easily. So far, I found interpretation very challenging but is because of lack of grammar and sintaxis domain wich is something that Im hardly working at this moment. any comment from you will be highly appreciated... And last I will not give up with my dream... Ty

Hola Rosa, mucho gusto! Tenia una series de pequeñas preguntitas, en mi búsqueda de interpreter training programs, me he encontrado con muchos, que como tu detallas en tu excelente video, enseñan las 4 partes generales de interprete. 1) En tu opinion, crees que un training program de 40-60hrs sea suficiente para pasar los NBCMI tests? (Soy novata). 2) Yo tengo dificultad en note taking, y tú mencionaste que tenías también, me preguntaba qué curso tomaste para mejorarlo, ya que me interesa mucho! 3)Esta es un poco mas personal.. consideras un curso de 600 USD barato o caro? Has tomado alguno gratis? MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS! y perdón por tantas preguntas! ❤️

¡Hola, Luján! En mi opinión, lo ideal sería estudiar una carrera universitaria en interpretación si cuentas con el tiempo y los recursos. En mi caso, tengo una carrera universitaria en otra área y para incursionar en interpretación tuve que hacerlo mediante una combinación de cursos técnicos, experiencias laborales y estudiando por mi cuenta. De hecho, todavía sigo tomando cursos de diferentes institutos para poder seguir mejorando y especializándome en otras áreas.

Hi Rebecca! There sure is! My recommendation would be to take a Spanish proficiency test, that way, based on your score you can have a quantitative way to measure your level. Check out NBCMI's and CCHI's websites where they have posted a list of tests and the minimum scores that are considered acceptable to work in the field. Good luck!

Hi! I love your channel! I just subscribed! Thanks for sharing your question. I don't know of any specific company offering an internship in medical interpreting but my suggestion would be to contact local hospitals or clinics where you live and offer your services as a volunteer interpreter. Try to cover different areas and specialties and keep good track of your hours so that once you complete the number of hours that your internship requires, you can request a letter from that institution confirming that you've done so. Nowadays there are lots of opportunities online too. Check out volunteer.org and see if there are any open volunteer opportunities that would be a good fit for you. I know the options I'm proposing are not an official internship but it's what I can offer since I'm not aware of any programs that offer this.

Hola! Excelente pregunta. Hay muchas formas de empezar pero en base a mi experiencia, mi recomendación sería considerar estas opciones: 1) Empezar tomando cursos de interpretación médica y de interpretación en general. Hacer trabajos voluntarios para ir adquiriendo experiencia y poco a poco ir consiguiendo contratos o empleos en la industria. 2) Solicitar empleo en una compañía que te ofrezca capacitación y de esa forma puedes ir adquiriendo experiencia y conocimientos a la vez. De momento, la certificación no es algo obligatorio para empezar pero definitivamente recomiendo que lo consideres cuando ya hayas empezado a trabajar en el área. Mucha suerte!

@Interprepedia3 жыл бұрын
Hi, Richard! That's a good question 🤔 I think that most approved training programs will cover all the basics to start, but I find it's almost impossible to find a course that will cover everything so that's why we always have to take additional courses or attend workshops for continuing education. Literally almost every day I find new terms or medical situations that are unknown to me, so I think we constantly have to do self-study, reading a lot of medical publications, and researching on those unfamiliar topics in addition to taking classes.
