Hi Eve and Corinne.
I just want to say a huge thank you for this podcast, which I discovered about 18 months ago. I’ve been teaching English as a foreign language for 14 years in 5 countries (now in Bangladesh) and the idea of translation has always been floating around. After listening to your podcast religiously en route to and from work, reading both of your books and doing a lot of background research, I applied for an MA Translation (distance learning) at the University of Portsmouth (Spanish to English, with some French to English) and started the course last week. It’s been an intellectual eye-opener so far and is exactly what I’ve been looking for. The goal is to eventually become a freelancer along side my teaching.
Thank you both for the passion you ooze in your podcasts, which inspired me to start this course. I look forward to more listening fun this year.
Ste (long ‘eee’ sound at the end!)
Ste, thank you for YOUR inspirational story! Thank you for sharing and keep us posted as to your future successes (sounds like there will be many!).
Wow, thanks Stephen! Your message made our day! Keep up the great work and we’ll keep podcasting!
