  • A stay of at least six months to a year is recommended.
  • Live with and/or frequently interact with native speakers of your non-native language.
  • Take content-related courses (e.g. macroeconomics, political science) in your non-native language (not just pure language courses).
  • Work in a setting that requires high level use of your non-native language.

5. Fine-tune your writing and research skills.d5G潍坊翻译公司-忠信乐译翻译有限公司

  • Take challenging composition courses (not just creative writing courses, but classes in journalism, technical writing, etc.) so you can “speak” journalese, UNese, legalese, etc.
  • Copy (by hand) sections of textbooks and periodicals in your non-native language(s).
  • Make a note of unfamiliar or troublesome grammatical points and work towards mastering them.
  • Practice proofreading.

6. Improve your public speaking skills.d5G潍坊翻译公司-忠信乐译翻译有限公司

  • Take rigorous speech courses and/or join Toastmasters (www.toastmasters.org).

  • Practice writing summaries of news articles.

  • Learn to use advanced functions of Word, Excel, and other Microsoft Office applications in both your native and non-native languages.
  • Become an expert in search engines and online research by using these tools on a daily basis.

Eat sensibly, exercise regularly, and get sufficient sleep. These are all habits required of a good translator/interpreter.d5G潍坊翻译公司-忠信乐译翻译有限公司

10. Be prepared for lifelong learning.d5G潍坊翻译公司-忠信乐译翻译有限公司

Be patient. Bringing your language skills and analytical skills up to the level required of a professional translator or interpreter is not a task that can be accomplished in a few short years.
