If you are a good student and love foreign languages, English is definitely the first language you care about. However, don't rush to learn this language if you don't have a clear plan for your future job. Specifically, what are the job opportunities, salary, and working environment of this language? So I will try to explain in detail through this video. First, English is a language that includes 3 main languages, which are commercial English, translation English, and dictionary English. Some universities also have other languages, but in this video, I will only focus on these 3 languages so as not to be too confused. First, let's analyze the English-translation language, because this is the language that focuses and goes deep into the most languages in the industry. To explain a little bit, translation is a dictionary, and translation is a dictionary. This is also the industry that asks for the strongest passion for languages. Not only to learn about languages, listen, speak, read, and write, but also to learn about the culture, way of life, to understand the dialogues the most thoroughly. And when you go deep into the language, sometimes you will realize that the ability to use Vietnamese is also very important. To translate a paragraph from English to Vietnamese, compared to the very smooth writing of Vietnamese speakers, it's really not easy. You never thought you were not good at Vietnamese, right? When you go to work, you will realize that it is quite difficult to convey something. Especially new ideas, many people may not understand what you mean. In your free time, you can practice translating a movie or a book, make it really short, but have to be as comprehensive as possible. It is also a way for you to enhance your language skills, no matter what profession you study. A new student in this field can start by translating documents from English to Vietnamese, with an income of 8-10 million VND per month. When you first enter the company, you may not be able to do it right away, but you have to spend time learning about the profession as well as the professional level of the field in which the company is operating. For example, if you work for a media company, you have to learn what filming is, what photography is, how to take another photo, and what to prepare for a shooting. And when you can translate a dialogue, the income will be higher. Every job has its difficulties. What are the difficulties of this job? First, when you say you are a translator, many people will assume that you know everything. But when you hear other people talk about other professions, not the professions you are doing, you will find it difficult to understand. Even if you translate from English to Vietnamese, from Vietnamese to English, it will be very difficult. So if you want to be a translator in the form of a freelancer, that is, work freely, receive salary according to the project, you have to learn a lot of knowledge about many different fields. It's the same every day. It's not just about finishing university, but you have to learn knowledge every day, so that you can make progress in your work. For this profession, it is extremely necessary. As I said at the beginning, when my knowledge is limited, I can apply for a permanent job for a company and learn about the company's specialties. The second difficulty is that this job requires you to have a very flexible reflex. While translating a dialogue directly, and talking to the end, there may be many situations. Basically, there are cases where I will translate short sentences, there are cases where I will translate long sentences, there are cases where I have to wait for people to speak for 2-3 minutes before I translate. Of course, it requires me to reflect fluently on each situation. In addition, there are cases where an accident can happen, which requires you to be able to react quickly. Fighting! The third is that you need good memory and concentration in the case that people speak for 2-3 minutes before I translate. So I'm very sorry for those who have yellow memory like me. The high standard of a translator is a cabin translation, also known as a parallel translation. When the speaker starts talking, 3-4 seconds later, I have to translate in parallel. And after they finish, I will also finish after 3-4 seconds. To put it simply, it's the same as watching a movie. Awesome! This job brings in income from $200 to $500 a day. An income, I have to say, is terrible. Although it is called the peak of the translator, I see many cabin translators are still quite young. Compared to other professions, sometimes I have to spend 10 years, 20 years to achieve a high position in the profession. I feel that you can achieve fast results in the translation profession if you really have high ability. On the contrary, if you don't have enough passion, it will be very difficult to develop in this profession. 5 seconds to think and score your team. My score is 2 out of 10. And you? The second profession is English. I will analyze the similarities and differences between this profession and the translation department. Like the translation department, both professions are all about foreign languages. The difference is that this job will not ask you too much about the ability to translate. Because whatever you teach, you can prepare carefully in front of the house. You don't have to know too much about other fields. Instead, what we need for this profession is the ability to interpret. That's how you have to communicate so that it's really easy to understand so that the students can listen without sleeping in class. You have to assess the student's ability to teach very slowly or teach quickly, but make sure the students keep up. And when you give an exercise, you have to match the student's ability. Too easy or too difficult, which makes the student not want to do it. The teacher who teaches basic classes usually has an income of 10, 15, 20 million depending on ability and experience. IELTS trainees often have an income of 20 to 40 million. In addition to the university level, what levels do I need? Each center will have its own rules. I also have the ability to convey knowledge in an easy-to-understand way. However, I feel that the teacher's image is a bit too serious compared to me. And I'm also tired of repeating the same content for many different classes and repeating it over and over again for many years. If you also feel that the work of an English teacher is too secretive like me, you can look up the third profession, which is commercial English. Although the name of the profession is commercial English, what I learn is still about language. And the knowledge of economics is also quite basic. In which subject, each school will have a different curriculum. But in general, I will not be good at business, economy, and other things when I study this profession. But I only know English as an economic profession or some basic knowledge in the economy. After graduating, I can apply for the position of assistant secretary to the general director. These are jobs that require a lot of foreign languages. If you are a Korean fan, you may be too familiar with this job. The job of the secretary is to take over and arrange the schedule for the general director. And the assistant is the one who can advise and solve some tasks on behalf of the director. In fact, when you don't have the trust, sometimes the assistant secretary is just a busybody. Only when you have the ability and trust, can you contribute to important issues. The salary for this position can reach from 8 to 12 million for new people and over 40 million for people with experience and high ability. Usually, the secretary will be a careful, meticulous, quick and able to arrange the work. And the assistant is the one who will have a lot of knowledge. Many people will wonder that if you don't become an assistant secretary, you can do other jobs in the economy such as marketing, HR, bank finance, logistics or not. In fact, if you want to work in the economy, you will usually learn some foreign languages. In my personal opinion, you should have a clear direction. When learning English, it is quite reasonable to choose to be a translator or a teacher. If you choose English as a trade or other professions, you need to consider that English is just a tool, not your main specialty. For example, if you do marketing or logistics, you also need to use a lot of foreign languages. But at the moment, foreign languages are just tools. And your main specialty is still marketing or logistics. Similarly, if you work for a foreign company, your main specialty may be IT or design. Although you have to communicate in foreign languages, foreign languages are just tools. So if you have a love for foreign languages, you can still determine whether foreign languages are your main specialty or tools for your future job. And if you determine that it is your main specialty, you still have to take into account the difficulties and requirements in the job that I mentioned in the video. With Japanese, Chinese and Korean, there are many similar factors. I wish you make the right decision and don't forget to subscribe to my channel.
