A FEW WORDS FROM OUR STUDENTS

"Shelly’s love for languages and mentoring her students has enabled me to develop a holistic set of skills for carrying out translation work between English and Chinese. She also generously addressed my gaps by providing timely feedback and useful materials. I am grateful to have met her through the Singapore Apprenticeship for Literary Translation (SALT) in 2017, and my continued journey in translation illustrates how she continues to be my inspiration in this multidisciplinary, exciting, and constantly evolving field. Thank you, Shelly!"
TAY MENG HOW
I attended Shelly’s "Specialised Translation: Literature” classes, which covered topics such as literary text translation, translation of humour and wordplay. Her classes are very engaging and she speaks from a wealth of experience. For every discussion and learning point, Shelly always has many examples to share. She is also very open-minded as a teacher and gives students the space to be creative while applying our learnings.
LIM LI KHEE
"Shelly has helped me grow as a translator both inside and outside the classroom. She is not only unreserved about imparting her 'Kungfu' to us but also generous in passing on projects and referring clients. I am blessed to have her as my mentor, and highly recommend her courses."
