Testimonials

Larissa WEvents Management Certification Level 2"I think you have given an excellent course: the explanations are very good and I even think you give us answers to questions we did not arise until we were seeing us before a royal commission when I would no longer have to you to us solventarais, and yet, I do not think we bear all "chewed" but we do think; I also think it is worth noting your commitment to be a course focused on the labour aspect because it is something that is also very necessary, besides theoretical knowledge, that I find very appropriate. Also, your way of encouraging is something I consider very valuable. And above all, I particularly find it very convenient that you have decided to offer these courses online because most of the courses related to translation are taught in difficult times to follow for those who work on staff."

Mark REvents Management Certification Level 2"Overall the course was what I expected. It has been very interesting, has taught me a lot and made me realize how much I have to learn and how careful I have to have with the scientific translation and ortotipografía. At least now I have the resources and awareness to study and investigate minutely before delivering anything. Gonzalo has a teaching style very fun and funny with Vastis demonstrating the knowledge you have that so generously shared. Congratulations and I hope we meet again "see" on this platform."

JanetEvents Management Certification Level 2"From what I see, the master-assisted translation with SDL Trados is incredibly full. Honestly, when I signed did not have very clear he wanted, since he had used Trados has long and very superficially in college and I've noticed the wide range of options and control that can be obtained with this program. To congratulate you for the course. There is no doubt that I will recommend."
