    I just found out your channel today :) and I’m really happy that I did! I actually thought of quitting before I even start working as an interpreter with no experience, due to the amount of isolation, stress and anxiety I had been facing :(. Your channel shed some light on me and i couldnt be more thankful

      Hello! I don't think I can send you videos in the comments but I will attach a link to my CMI video series. I believe your question will be answered in one of the videos. I hope it helps! (ua-cam.com/video/FbFRKgUDh6g/v-deo.htmlsi=LcvSTbMVb0PrrivA)

    Hi Mason!! Thank you for your great content, I have a question, interpreters who speak more than 2 languages are paid more or is the same?

    • @masontheinterpreter
      @masontheinterpreter  5 місяців тому +1

      Hey there! Of course I cannot speak for all, but from my understanding, it is not common to get a higher rate because you speak more than two languages, but since you can receive more calls, that will increase your call volume which can be critical if you get paid per minute. I hope this makes sense! 🥰

    What should I do to get the certificate if I I am done watching All of your videos?

    • @masontheinterpreter
      @masontheinterpreter  2 місяці тому

      Hello there! Thanks for watching all of my videos! I would say the first step would be to choose which certification you are going for, whether it's NBCMI, CCHI or something different. (I have a video on NBCMI vs CCHI if you haven't watched) Try visiting their official websites, and read their certification process thoroughly. Whichever you choose to take, you will be required to provide a proof of your 40 hours of medical interpreting training - basically a certificate, which can be obtained by purchasing and completing my course on my website. I hope this helps!

    Hello sir, thank u for your great tips, could u pls tell me how to become a Free lance interpreter, I am a linguist , speaking four languages English, Farsi/Dari , Pushtu, Urdu , working a translator and Interpreter for two big companies, what documents are required?

    • @masontheinterpreter
      @masontheinterpreter  5 місяців тому +1

      Hello there! It's amazing that you speak so many languages! I believe there is no one document that makes you a freelance interpreter, but since you are working at two companies already, things should be much easier for you. I believe the steps provided in this video should be still relevant to you, and I highly suggest pursuing interpreter certifications in other fields that you might be interested. If that happens to be medical, I have other videos on my channel that could be of help. I hope this helps at least a little bit and best wishes to you!
