Thank you for all the information you are sharing with me. I reside in Atlanta Georgia, and I am currently preparing for the written/oral court interpreting exam.
Amy Gavina Update?
Amy Gavina no lp no
It’s a wonderful video! Thank you very much, Joe! But really, it’d be so much easier if the phrases appeared on the screen after being pronounced .
I agree
Hi, you have prepared any other videos where you can practice actual interpreting? Muchas gracias!
Thank you. It would wonderful if you could write them.
wow! this is really good. Thank you
It would be even better if the Spanish counter part for the idioms were provided.
Yeah it doesn’t make sense why these are on a test for spam interp just doesn’t make any sense. Isn’t this the English part of the test?
The link doesn't work anymore
Great video. Could anybody tell me what was that one that said "I've been on the leam, limb, lean?" he says it means something like be away of justice for five years. Anybody, please?
On the land
On the LAM
This was of great help to study, thanks!!
Really?? Oh i didn’t know.
Que pena 😞🙏 en donde se encuentre le agradezco mucho la ayuda de sus videos, descanse en paz 🙏🙏🙏
Solo vi los de you tube, lo cual es suficiente, que tenga in feliz día 🌸
This is excellent! How do you prepare for the "language assessment" part of the written exam?
th-cam.com/video/Un1iYUifPTE/w-d-xo.html
He should've written all the slang and idioms in here. I tried to access his website but now it's become unavailable...
Have you taken your test Javier? If so, how did it go?
Is this information still relevant today? I am applying for a certified court Interpreter position and if given the position, I plan on obtaining my certification
Hi, did you become an interpreter?
@@JoelsterG4k No, I wasn't offered the position.
Chunky Dunkin' killed me lmaoooo

You should have them written down as you say them.
Great! Thank you
QEPD
De que falleció? 😢
THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF IDIOMS AND SLANGS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. I WONDER WHO WILL LEARN THEM ALL.
What if he really died from lead poisoning?
Ojalá y pase el examen escrito. Tengo años estudiando pero soy bien burro
Hi.. I was wondering if you could let me know if you took a class for this part of the exam or if you know where I can find material. Please let me know it would be so helpful. 🙏
Hola, si pasaste el examen? como te va?

Confirmed the instructor died about 2 years ago
TELEPHONE NUMBER IS INCORRECT: Joe Hernandez is out of business and the telephone number had been reassigned.
Stefan Roehrig I just found put about Joe's passing, did any of his family continue his business??

This is stupid to be honest. No one is going to use this language in Spanish.
He didn't make the test, he's just teaching what will be on it
