ARE INTENSIVE LANGUAGE COURSES WORTH IT? (Freelance Translator)

I took a 2-week intensive language course while working full time as a freelance translator. In today's video, I'm sharing my experience. Hope you enjoy!

Please note that the Auto Translate function by YouTube provides translations of very poor quality and I suggest to only use it very sparingly. I always offer people to subtitle the videos into their native language if they want to build up a portfolio. In that case, drop me a message to:

    Wow! It seems that French teachers like Mickey 3D 😅. About 15 years ago, when I was learning French, one of my teachers also made us listen to many French songs to improve our listening skills. One of the songs that now lives rent-free in my head is Mickey 3D’s Ça ne m’étonne pas. It’s very beautiful, and even though it’s been quite a few years, I still remember the lyrics clearly. Thank you for sharing your experience with language courses—it was very informative.

      Haha no way 😀 I guess he uses very clear language so that it’s easy to follow the lyrics, so that makes sense. I really like learning with songs, somehow it adds another layer of interest. Thanks for sharing that! 🙂

      ​@@Freelanceverse You’re right, I hadn’t really thought about it before, but that could definitely be the reason 🤔. I thought it was because that was our teacher’s music style 😅. The lyrics are pretty interesting too, got to love them!
      And yeah, learning a language through songs is one of the best ways to pick it up. 👍

    Hey Adrian, Mario here! Congratulations, you did it! 😁🎉🎊I loved this experience and as I start a new professor position giving conversational English classes at different levels, I will steal ideas for my course 😀 As always, loved the video. Take care! And also, Happy International Translation Day! 🙂
