Hello everyone,

I am a new translator and I am having difficulty navigating this new career without being overwhelmed. If anyone is interested in taking me under their wing, I would be eternally grateful. My language pair is EN>SP. Thank you so much!

P.S. I did try to contact a couple of people in the mentoring program but I did not get any responses.

Only people with the Proz P are allowed to mentor Oct 30, 2014

According to the powers that be, none of the rest of us are considered good enough. At least that's the message I receive if I click on a request for a mentor: You are not eligible to respond to a mentoring offer.
Good luck. I'm sure you'll find someone in your pair who will help you get started.

Those with P are too busy to mentor Oct 30, 2014

I hope you have more luck than I had. So that is the reason, Writeaway, and only those that have the P are allowed to mentor and those are too busy-I don't blame them-to mentor. About time this is changed, at least they could change it to something like 'those that have xxxx KudoZ points.

Ask Specific Questions Oct 31, 2014

If you ask specific questions here, I am sure most of us would be happy to reply. I had done some mentoring for teenagers a while ago but the skills I have used were probably different than skills that would be necessary here. Anyhow, I would be happy to help if you ask some questions. Good luck!
