So very proud of you guys David! You may not remember me, I was one of the schedulers you spoke with probably 5 times a week back when we were both with that other awful interpretation services provider. Gloria and I used to drive you crazy, lol. Anyway, this is such an amazing story and I'm so happy for you guys and your success and truly admire your passion and commitment to helping our non-english speaking community. It hits close to home as my husband is non-English speaking and I'm bilingual in Spanish as a result. It makes 100% difference when there is a quality interpreter to assist at any appointment, and you've contributed to that a great deal! Super awesome to see how far you've come. Keep up the great work!

Child interpreter phenomenon is very real. Thank you for sharing your story. It’s very interesting to see the inception of interest for this field and it seems our Mothers have so much to do with our natural abilities.❤

Would you mind writing here what the communication acronym in your presentation is? Thanks!

I´m very interested in her trayning. I have a similar life experience from hers. Want to become an interpreter (english, spanish, brasilian portugues) living in Brasil as well. Thanks for that enormous information.

Thank you for your time madam interpreter. You are a very admirable person and definitely a great examlle to follow.

👏🏼👏🏼

Thank you for this peces, I needed to hear this.

What a lovely lady. This podcast was informative. Tomorrow I am scheduled again to do a simultaneous job. I feel more confident now.

Half of this interpreters are so bad 😂😂they say the wrong things all the time whole sentences and they have a job is the school you have to pass

Amazing

Such a wonderful interview, thank you! I am getting ready to take the NY court interpreter exam and this interview was a blessing to watch 🙏🏽❣️

Thank you very much for sharing your experience. It is really encouraging for me ( junior interpreter)😊

Your sharing has such a positive impact on me! I had no idea that Mike Lemay has gone through that as well, and wept!:)…cheers, thank you!

Excellent video! I am sure it will be a lot of help in my starting career as an interpreter. Thank you very much!

i like how like theres no sample like i get this is effective but im not seeing someone do it

❤

Thank you so much for this podcast. Je me suis vraiment identifié dans le parcours de l’invité.

This is a great start most of the agencies or companies required you to have 40 or 60 hour interpreter training in California to hire someone.

Thank you for being so honest about your weaknesses and failures❤ we all have them, but are afraid to look into them or admit them. You're brilliant Mike❤

More than a thank!! I'm encouraged alot by your shares. Never try to be perfect. Stay cool calm and collective ~ Thanks a bunch!!!

Simultaneous is extremely stressful 😢 I'm extremely comfortable with consequitive..

So interesting!!!

Thanks for this great video. Did you stop posting on your channel, or do you plan to post new videos and continue with this great project? Thanks for letting us know!

Amazing. I am an English-Indonesian Conference Interpreter based in Indonesia. I would love to participate in this kind of events abroad. :)

60 hours?? It takes YEARS to become a true interpreter.

So helpful! And your vulnerability is commendable. Many feel this way but just don’t admit or share it. - thank you

LOVELY testimony.....Thank you so much.

I think simultaneous is easier too

promo sm 😠

Thanks

Thank you for the opportunity to share my experience :)

Hello, I would love to get an authorization to use your video in a training course I'm working on it, can I?

Thank you for sharing! I think quality should matter all of the time, regardless. In this industry, we are quality-and-result-oriented people and we tend to apply those principles even in our daily lives.

Very interesting podcast and good to see that some progress has been made over the decades, but we still have a long way to go. I have a close family member who was on an stroke ward run by the NHS recently (UK state medical service). It's too far for me to visit and we are both hard-of-hearing, so I was really pleased that the ward nurses had a couple of tablet devices we could use to call with video and subtitles. (On the downside, the staff managed to lose her hearing aids while she was in hospital, but they were promptly replaced.) But then she was transferred to a rehab care home where they only have the ward landline. It's cordless, so they took it to the cafeteria where my family member was and we really struggled to have a conversation with just audio, plus all the background noise of the cafeteria. Nightmare scenario for hard-of-hearing trying to stay connected as a patient and for hard-of-hearing trying to support their loved ones. Luckily, there are relatives close enough to visit and able to organize a private device so that we can connect. Thirty years ago, there would have probably been one public payphone in the whole building for those who could walk to it and manage the coins, so things have got better in many ways. In the modern world, communication technology should be available in the healthcare environment and staff should get basic training in how to use it and help the patients with it.

I am so proud of you and happy that I could move you into this powerful role. I love your passion and just seeing you succeed.

Melissa seems to be an amazing human being both personally and professionally! It’s a pleasure even just to listen to her! We indeed need to believe in ourselves and just work towards our dreams! Thanks for the episode:)

Wow! There’s truly SO much power when a person sees a meaning behind what they are doing! Inspired!

This was a great interview. I’ve seen Mike before. I appreciated his message.

What an awesome podcast from a wonderful fellow countrywoman and interpreter, her story is great and made me reflect a lot on the matter.
