What some of our students say about us...
I wanted to start a new career and work as a translator. Now after not even three months, I am in the business thanks to the real good training and the helpfulness of the staff.
The support of the TTA Team is outstanding and meant a lot to me. It was worth every penny!
Thanks to TTA, I am now my own boss and feel as free as I never felt before! I enjoy working now and decide for myself where and when I want to work. Live up the dream! It IS possible!

Working as a freelance translator has been my dream for years, but I always thought you had to have a translation degree to do so. I also thought it was difficult to get started. Through Inger Lise's training, I learned the opposite.

After 30 years as an IT consultant in the oil and gas industry, I was ready to do something else. I'm now using my professional knowledge in a new way and have created my own job.

background...
You don't need a particular background or education to build multiple income streams, starting with translation work.
In our Premium Bundle - BECOME A FREELANCE TRANSLATOR + THE MULTIPLE INCOME FREELANCER - you get both programs for one price!
Susanne was one of many who believed they were not suitable to become a freelancer.
I worked an 80% position at a school and wanted extra income. One day I received an e-mail from Inger Lise in my inbox, and I thought, "Why not?" So I enrolled in the program and was primarily hoping to earn enough to cover the fee for the program. I did that the first month.
What Inger Lise teaches, differs in that it is hands-on. It's not the kind of program that brags about how amazing it is, and you're left feeling you haven't learned anything afterward. The program gives specific information: This is how you register your company, this is how you negotiate prices, this is how much you should get paid, this is the software most in use (with complete user guides), not to mention a lot of relevant content (interviews, webinars, etc.) and a supportive Facebook group where you can get answers to anything.
I quit my job about a year after starting my own business. I wrote this in October 2020, and my income this year amounts to €82,000. My best month this year has been June with €14,000.
I quit my job about a year after starting my own business. I wrote this in October 2020, and my income this year amounts to €82,000. My best month this year has been June with €14,000. That means I got a €50,000 raise compared to the job I used to have, and that's with me working when and where I want. When my son comes from school, I am at home, take long lunch breaks when I want to, and hit the bubble bath when I feel like it.
I warmly recommend Inger Lise's program. You will not find anyone who cares for or serves up as much for her students and members, new and old!

I count the moment seeing the ad for this program as a watershed moment for me, a real turning point.
After being unemployed for a year and applying for jobs I didn’t want, signing up for this program was a spontaneous decision that I don’t regret!
I felt at home in the industry straight away, and after a few months, I was able to support myself full-time as a translator.
I love the possibilities - you work when you want to, how much you want to and where you want to. I can’t imagine going back to a nine-to-five job with traffic jams and incompetent bosses.
Geir Amundsen
Norway
The program Become a Freelance Translator was an outstanding experience for me.
I tried on my own to become a translator before discovering this program, but I couldn't get clients. In the program, you learn the ropes. The method is practical and very easy to understand, and you're left with a feeling of being able to do this.
Inger Lise is an incredibly attentive and supportive teacher! I am so happy with everything I've learned and excited that I can now work as a translator properly. If you're considering joining the program, I recommend doing so!
Karna Klausen Herland

After years of my previous job feeling not-quite-right, I stumbled upon The Translator Academy’s course Become a Freelance Translator. I had played with the thought of taking my transferable skills and subject area expertise into translation business, but I had not a clue how to do that.
At the time of writing this, I have been a full-time freelance translator for five months. The tool box I built with The Translator Academy has been invaluable. I have secured a couple of very good clients, and although I am still a beginner, for the last couple of months I have been able to earn enough to make the ends meet – within half a year of getting started!
To summarise, The Translator Academy’s course Become a Freelance Translator has been worth every penny for me. I not only got a new career, but a confidence boost and a work-life balance that suits me at this point of my life. Thanks to taking this leap of faith, I have also met wonderful people both online and in real life. I warmly recommend this course if you have thought about going into translation but don’t know how!
Anna Honkanen

This course literally changed my life. It may seem a bit over the top, but it is true. It gave me the courage to leave a job I disliked, and really helped me get on my feet with translation.
The support team is amazing and helps you every step of the way, you get hands-on tips how to start your business and how to find clients.
An extra big plus is the Facebook groups you get access to, where you can get tips and support from fellow students and the support team is there as well to guide you in every question that may pop up.
Every cent spent on this course was worth it for me.
Hanna Heffler
Sweden
Thank you so much for a wonderfully helpful program. I got so excited that I've dived right into starting my work as a translator after finishing the program.
Genuinely, if it hadn't been for this program I don't think I would have been this successful at getting on agency rosters and getting jobs (I got three jobs within two weeks of starting to send emails out and one of them is a big, four week project that I am currently working on!)
I am eternally grateful for the base knowledge and reassurance that this program has given me. How lucky that I stumbled on one of your ads when I was struggling with getting started on my freelance career because I didn't know where to start.
Sara Good - Denmark
When I first saw your videos and ads on facebook, I was very sceptical. Who are these people and what do they want from me? Is this yet another attempt of trying to sell me something I really don’t need?
But now I’m just so relieved and happy that I signed up, confident that we’re all among friends here. Thank you all for working so hard to help and to improve the program.
This program of yours is changing my life so much and I’m so grateful for it. Thank you!!

These will tell you...
Before I signed up, I was unsure if I would be suited to work as a translator, and if I would gain the knowledge I needed to fulfill my tasks as a translator.
This program is one of the best I have signed up for in a long time. It was easy to understand and organized very practically. Do A, then B. None of the programs I have signed up for in other fields have yielded as much income as this.
I warmly recommend this if you are a doer and not afraid of knuckling down and doing the job.
Oddvar Meyer - Norway
I combine translation with journalism, and it is gold. I can develop a broader writing voice when I do both. When translating, I often come across different genres than in my journalism, which lets me use different phrasing. Similarly, translation can offer good tips on angles I previously had not thought about for my articles.
In both cases I can experience periods where I wait for answers from editorial offices or clients, and that’s when a second profession comes in handy. No waste of time in between projects and extra job security in a constantly changing world. Removing the blinds make you see thru more doors and with this more and more possibilities gets visible for later use.
Guro Lindseth - Norway
It has now been around six months since I took the program.
As someone who had no previous experience working in the field, I really was starting from scratch!
The course gave me the confidence and basic knowledge I needed to get kick started. Loads of crucial info as well as dos’ and don’ts. Engaging and fun webinars.
The confidence gradually grew, because you knew that you had people backing you and also help at hand for all the ‘dumb’ questions a rooky might have.
Now I’ve started marketing and getting work and the help thank goodness doesn’t stop there. Inger Lise’s team are so encouraging and approachable....so when the ‘unknown’ terminology or weird questions from potential clients arrive in your e mail, it’s just to shout out for help!
I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in getting started with language services
Heather Bonnet-Smith - UK
I took TT’s translation course many years ago and it’s literally been lifechanging. For a while, I worked as a part-time language teacher and a translator, for then to transition into translating full time. In May this year I signed a contract as a full-time in-house translator for the second consecutive year and translation has been my sole income for 3+ years.
The Translator Academy teaches you everything you need to know on how to succeed as a translator in an inspiring and hands-on manner. But most importantly, Inger Lise and her team always have your back and the community they have created is second-to-none.

Inspiring and valuable training – the most useful I have experienced! And I have experienced many! Everything you learn is wrapped up in a thorough but easy-to-grasp way. And the best thing: It can be applied the way you need to use your abilities and experiences. From the insecure and nervous start at the end of 2016, I have gradually reduced my position as a teacher little by little.
In the beginning, I made mistakes and maybe didn't deliver top-quality translations, and I had to work a few nights to meet a deadline. But Inger Lise and her team are available and present to answer questions, and gradually I have gotten more and more projects by following Inger Lise's training and advice. In January 2019, my position as a teacher was reduced to ten percent and by the summer I quit entirely. Really scary!
Today I am lucky enough to have half of my income from freelance translation and half from being a freelance teacher of Norwegian. And some are a mix of the two. I would not have dared to or been able to go for any of it without the valuable and practical training from Inger Lise, and the support and backing throughout from the program and the Facebook group. I have been able to utilize all my previous experience and competence. Combined with everything I have learned in this program, I have learned it has enabled me to do what I love the most: subtitling, literature critiquing and translation and developing pedagogical tools and apps in language learning.
And my expertise, which I wondered what was, Inger Lise has helped me uncover by being available for sparring with me.
Trude Kristin Bah - Sweden/Norway
Quite by coincidence, I stumbled upon a link to a page about becoming a freelance translator. I thought: "Why not?" and clicked the link curiously.
From that moment, I was sold – this was the opportunity I had longed for! I have always loved languages and have worked with localization, so this was an excellent opportunity to expand my knowledge and become a translator. And it was so much fun! The content is inspiring and practical, and the best part is that you can set the pace yourself.
And what a mentor Inger Lise is! Incredibly welcoming, warm and inspiring. You can tell she has a lot of experience from working in the industry, which she gladly shares with us. She will go the extra mile to make you feel safe in your new role, and I have her to thank for being able to work full time as a translator with several regular clients.
I am so happy that "coincidences" led me this way, and I recommend this program warmly. You will not regret it.
