INTERPRETERS’ TESTIMONIES

It was a great experience to render my services for the assignment. Looking forward for more assignments.

Bengali interpreter 2022

I wish more time is given to prepare the materials. / There’s also a little bit of noise issue on the speaker’s side towards the end. This affected the performance of the translation. On my side, I could study more specific terminology. Now that I have a bit of background, I hope to be better prepared next time.

Thai interpreter 2022

It would be good if the TVC could provide a brief overview of an event to the interpreter beforehand…The interpreter needs time to do some research, and get to know the organizations and what projects they are doing if it is a new area… In an interpreter role, this event does not only provide wider knowledge and new experience but the interpreter could take the lesson learned from this event to improve their professional skill in particular remote interpretation.

Lao interpreter 2022

A great event

Male Vietnamese Interpreter 2021

Interpreters should have been given the materials for preparation before the event to ensure the highest quality of interpretation.

Best headsets for remote interpreters & speakers

What makes a good headset

• Wired headset, not wireless: A wired headset ensures seamless transmission without any interruptions, saving you the added concern of losing connectivity or its battery dies halfway through, as well as many unpredictable factors at play during an event.
• Noise-canceling system: Noise cancellation can block out unwanted sounds and also enhance overall sound quality for a more seamless experience.
• Acoustic sound protection helps deal with all kinds of noises and reduces the strain on your hearing for a more comfortable experience.
• Good sound output: A headset with a flexible boom microphone allows for the microphone to be easily positioned in front of the mouth, ensuring clear and prioritised voice transmission over any background noise. 
• Comfort: whether double-sided, single-sided, or bone conduction headsets, they should be connected to the computer via USB for seamless transmission.
