| Checked in | Ryan Emami Expert at med, law, auto, jrn, telecom Canada Native in Persian (Farsi) Freelancer | Bio: I am a native speaker of Persian (or Farsi, the official language of Iran) and a professional English-Persian translator and interpreter with over seven years of experience, especially in technical, legal, business, and financial areas. I began my career as a freelance ...translator since 2003, when I also began studying English-Persian Translation at the undergraduate level at Islamic Azad University, Maybod, Yazd, Iran. In 2005, I was employed as a full-time translator and interpreter by a large tile manufacturer in the area, Naz Ceram Tiles Co. (www.nazcerammeybod.com). There I translated technical documents like machinery manuals, instruction leaflets, and user guides; legal documents such as contracts and agreements; and every other general or specific document that needed translation. I also corresponded with several foreign companies. As part of my interpreting responsibilities, I interpreted in the company meetings and on the factory site during the start-up period to facilitate communication between the company staff and foreign engineers. In 2007, I left the job to continue my higher education and work again as a freelancer. Now I hold both a BA in English-Persian Translation and an MA in Translation Studies, the latter from Chabahar Maritime University (CMU), Chabahar, Iran.
Currently I am working as a freelance translator equipped with almost all the skills and resources necessary for a translator. I do have a good number of software programs and CAT tools installed on my PC. A few of them are listed in my resume. This, together with my experience, enables me to handle almost any file type and provide any services, including translation, proofreading, editing, DTP, voice-over, subtitling, and interpreting services.More Less Message: Happy International Translation Day! |

| Checked in | Martina Silpoch Professional service-personal attention Canada Native in Czech Freelancer | Bio: Czech native, dividing my work time between Canada, USA and Czech Republic. |
| Checked in | | Bio: I was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, making Spanish my native language. I learned Russian and Ukrainian at an early age from my parents, and have been part of a Slavic church for most of my life. I learned English 25 years ago when my family moved to Canad...a.
My career is in the Health Information Management sector in a hospital. I've often interpreted for patients' appointments at my work place, until a few years ago when the organization started using telephone interpreting from a local company. I also have interpreted sermons and entire church services. My most recent social interpreting was May 2013 when I traveled with a friend to Argentina to meet her family. My friend speaks English and Russian but no Spanish, her family only speak Spanish. We were able to have seamless conversations between the two groups. This trip reinforced my passion for languages!
My aspirations are to become a certified interpreter and translator. I love languages and I love helping people. More Less Message: Hello everyone,
Looking forward to this web conference :). Hoping to learn lots.

| Checked in | Joy Mo Translate Your Way To Success Canada Native in Chinese Freelancer | Bio: I'm a freelance translator and certified Mandarin/English Court Interpreter in BC Canada.
Other than being a translator I'm also a business owner and the author of "Goodbye to Feast or Famine". I'm running a website helping language professionals find Translation J...obs and Golden Opportunities with their multilingual skills and talent.
With no formal business training, I obtained my marketing and business skills through my own experience of trial and error. From barely making ends meet to running a successful business, while taking care of two very young children at home, I know the challenges and problems freelancers face these days and how to deal with them.
Today my business is still growing, but I'm devoting more of my time helping fellow language professionals build their business.
I publish a free bi-weekly ezine "Translate Your Way to Success" helping freelancers attract higher-paying clients and create multiple income sources with their language expertise. For more information visit www.translators-biz-secret.com More Less Message: Hello fellow translators and interpreters,
As freelancers, I'm sure we all want to find a faster way to build our business. I would like to share my own experience with you. I'm hoping that some of my tips and strategies will be able to ...help you in a big way.
All the best,
Joy MoMore Less |
