Teachers
Teachers of Spanish as a Native and Foreign Language are trained to teach Spanish as a native and foreign language in the spheres of formal and non-formal education, develop teaching materials for online and onsite education systems, and design and prepare cultural, scientific, academic, and informative texts.
Teachers of foreign languages are trained to teach a foreign language at different educational levels, in official and private institutions, as well as to design, manage, execute, and monitor programs for adult training for specific purposes, in official or private institutions.
Their employment opportunities are closely linked to the significant position that language learning has in the third millennium.
Translators
National Sworn Translators are trained to translate texts and public and private documents from a foreign language to their native language and vice versa, in the commercial, scientific, legal, literary, journalistic, and technical fields.
Furthermore, they can participate in research centers, provide terminology and documentation services, and also be reviewers and linguistic advisors on the foreign language they have specialized in as required by the interested party (social media, libraries, associations, advertising and tourism agencies) working as an employee or a freelance translator.
Translators can also be conference, congress, symposium, and international meeting interpreters.
Their job is intricately connected to the cultural, scientific, and political spheres of the society in which they work.
