Dear Maribel, 

Thank you SO, so much for such wonderful webinars. I was dreading them because five and a half hours seemed eternal but they flew by. You're a wonderful presenter, organized, thorough and beyond knowledgeable. It was a true pleasure to take your webinars. You exceeded my expectations. You'll be seeing me again. Un fuerte abrazo y felices fiestas.
❤️ L. R. Z., Certified Court & CHI™ Interpreter (California) 

"Maribel’s webinars are very interesting and to the point.  Many of the unanswered questions I had for many years have finally been answered through her professional presentations.  She is highly knowledgeable about what is trending right now in the world of Interpretation and Translation.  I strongly recommend all of her webinars.  She is a true mentor and excellent source of knowledge".

❤️J. R., State-Certified Spanish Interpreter (Arizona)

I certainly enjoyed the webinar and your excellent approach to demystifying Immigration proceedings.

Thank you very much for your professional and inspirational teachings.  I feel much more prepared to tackle any Immigration Hearing because it is not a mystery anymore.

I am looking forward to taking the Ethics Webinar in the coming weeks.

Mil gracias estimada colega por compartir tus conocimientos con nosotros.

Maribel, I enjoyed today's workshop and appreciate your willingness and generosity to share your vast professional knowledge with us. As an immigrant to the US, also having worked in the California State courts for 30 yrs. as an interpreter, I value not only your expertise but that your heart is present in your work. See you on the next one!
❤️ Maria Ester M., State Certified Judicial, Medical, Administrative Hearings Interpreter (California)

I enjoyed the seminar very much and I learned a lot from it. I think your approach to introduce us to Immigration Court is very logical and organized... 

I thank you very much because I know you have put your own knowledge and experience into your training and that is invaluable. 
I hope I can further participate in other training sessions in the future.
❤️ F. L. R. P., State-Certified Spanish Interpreter (Florida)

Thank you, Maribel. I thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from your medical terminology seminar. The 5 hours went by very fast. Wish we had 2 more hours.

❤️ N. A., State-Certified Arabic Interpreter (California)

Thank you Maribel for your professionalism and kindness. Your comments about the creation of a perfect human body hit home. As a Muslim, I believe that Allah's creation has been designed and created according to the highest heavenly standard of splendor and order impossible to be ever emulated by anyone.
❤️ Z. K., State-Certified Arabic Interpreter (California)

Thank you so much for the certificate and a fantastic series of webinars. 

 ❤️ M. M., Registered Farsi & Dari (Afghanistan) Interpreter (California)

Thank you very much for providing this seminar for us. Thank you also for sending these word documents to me. I have done some translations from either Chinese in English or English into Chinese regarding health and self-healing. I was somewhat familiar with some of the medical terms written form. Once I get them translated, I can forget the terms easily. Your seminar helped me a lot. I will work on these documents to better myself with basic medical terminology!
You have worked very hard to put this seminar together. Please know that your work is greatly appreciated! Respectfully,
❤️ Ms. D. Zhu., Freelance Mandarin Interpreter/Translator

Texas Licensed Court Interpreter

The Ethics is magnificent – I especially like your examples.     Also, thank-you so much for responding to my troubles so quickly when I could not register last week. You are very courteous and very kind and very committed.     

And last but not least, your tone of voice and your intonation and relaxed, calm register is the best of all I have heard in any of the courses I have taken over the past almost 20 years. 

Thank-you for your love, commitment and dedication to the Interpreter world!"

"Muchísimas gracias por todo! Se me pasó el tiempo volando y habría podido estar cinco horas más J Tienes un estilo muy ameno en tus presentaciones, además de conocer tu profesión “al dedillo”, pero lo que valoro por encima de todo, es tu capacidad de escucha, de recepción a lo que dicen y piensan todos los asistentes al webinario y tu humanidad en el trato con todos nosotros."

❤️Josephine B., Registered Spanish-French-Catalan Interpreter (California)

"I just finished up taking my first class with Maribel Alonso, with the focus of the class on Medical terminology. Maribel remains an exceptional teacher because she manages to take a technical subject (medical vocabulary) and by engaging everyone with her enthusiastic delivery, make it fun for everyone to learn from her, and each other. I just sat through a 5 hour zoom session and I never felt bored or distracted at any point. We all had worksheets that we were filling in as we went along, so when we were not engaged directly in the class, we were each filling in our worksheets with terms. 

I graciously asked Maribel to consider offering more of these classes focused on Medical, and she enthusiastically agreed to do so after the Holidays. I look forward to providing more details about upcoming class with Maribel very soon.

Great job Maribel and thank you for sharing the gift of your knowledge, training and experience with those of us who are eager to learn and develop our skills to their fullest potential.

❤️Anthony Valle (Resource Center Forum) State-Certified Spanish Interpreter (California)

" Gracias a ti, Maribel, por tu excelente curso y por tu inigualable método pedagógico. No fue aburrido del todo. La participación práctica (hands-on) del grupo contribuyó mucho a ello. Me informas, por favor, de tus cursos futuros.".

Thank you so much for a great and informative webinar!"
