Claire O., Interpreter Workshop Participant

“I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to shadow you. Not only was I able to gain insight and understanding of this career option, but you provided me with many invaluable resource and connections that I never could have made on my own…Your level of skill and professionalism is an example to the interpreting and translating field.

“Thank you for coming in to do the interpreter workshop with our Heritage Speaker Spanish class. For some of us, it was an exciting, new experience to learn about your fie

“The method of training is very participatory and engaging which keeps the audience interested and increases understanding of important concepts

“In addition to translation and interpreting services, Shawna and her team continuously look to bring organizations and individuals in our community together in new ways.   Shawna’s ability to see the bigger picture and recognize others’ skills and gifts is an asset to the JeffersonCounty community. Whether she and her team are involved with medical providers, the courts, non-profits, school districts, youth or families, they continue to challenge all to think and act outside of their paradigms. Shawna and her staff are highly-prepared professionals with university degrees in English and/or Spanish language as well as specialized training and certification in the field.   We value our partnership with Bilingual Training Consultants both for the high standard with which they perform as for the pro-bono work they have done for us.  Their generosity helps our small non-profit organization on many different levels, and we know we can count on quality and accuracy.”

“Muchas gracias por todo tu esfuerzo por apoyar a jóvenes interpretes. Gracias por compartir tu conocimiento con tanto cariño y generosidad. Gracias por motivarme a mejorar cada día  en mi carrera como interprete. Disfrute y aprendí mucho.”

“Thank you for ALL your work on that!! I think it looks great!! We are excited to start using it!! I have another orientation booklet that we will need (it is about half the size) translated. I will send it to you as soon as I have the final proof in English…”
