It's not 100% certain yet, but starting in May I may have work for people with
knowledge of Arabic, Chinese, Polish or Dutch. Two separate positions: 1. Writing lessons. This requires a native or non-native proficient speaker of the target language with good knowledge of English and good awareness of grammar. 2. Proofreading and data-entry. This requires a native English speaker with at least an intermediate level of the target language, someone to whom computers come naturally and who cannot imagine writing anything other than excellent, flawless English. Both positions will be freelance, online, 5-10 hours a week and decently paid. I'm mentioning these opportunities here because I believe that this kind of work would be an excellent match for people looking for a little extra income to finance their language studies, especially as this work will solidify your language knowledge. University students, stay-at-home mums and freelance workers are equally welcome. Please send me an e-mail (yutian.mei@gmail.com) if you believe you can fulfill one of these positions. Clearly indicate your forum user name and which type of work you feel qualified to do. By the way, it is neither an advantage nor a disadvantage to know more than one of the languages on the list.

Hello!
I'm native-spoken-Mandarin translator for many years. Maybe there is some chance for our cooperation. Best regards Edited by mandarin on 12 March 2011 at 8:27pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Sorry, the proofreading position is only open to English native speakers. I'm assuming
that lesson writers can write English well, so proofreaders need to find those last few mistakes that even I can't avoid sometimes. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I'm a native English speaker and I am interested in this offer. I actually specialize in working with foreign students to improve their written English, and have done editing and proofreading work for several years. I'm afraid my active knowledge of Dutch is rather low (you can see a sample of my writing in the last entry on this page of my log), but my familiarity with German and English should help, and if the work starts in May I can continue studying Dutch until then to improve my current level.
I'll send you an email right now. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Hey SprachProfi, I'm just checking to see if you got my email about this position. If you don't think my language experience is enough for it, that's absolutely no problem – just let me know. I hope to hear from you! If you didn't get my email, let me know here (my PMs are often very delayed) and I'll send it again.

Sorry, Jinx, I thought I had answered your e-mail; it's no longer in my to-answer pile. I
will be happy to work with you when we tackle Dutch. The start may be delayed because of the current confusion in Japan; my client had to vacate their Tokyo office. 1 person has voted this message useful |
