Reply to: job-uwvjd-2054098964@craigslist.org

I am looking for an Iraqi instructor and native speaker with translation experience to provide as many of the following services as possible:

1. Listen to 2-3 short (~5 min each) recordings of Iraqi and evaluate the authenticity and naturalness of the spoken Iraqi.

2. Listen in on longer studio recording sessions and direct / coach other Iraqi speakers, per specifications to be provided.

3. Speak Iraqi clearly and authentically, working from a script, to record monologues and dialogues in recording sessions at a studio in Washington, DC.

4. Review Iraqi scripts for authenticity of language, making corrections to them as needed. Correct English translations of these scripts as needed.

5. Produce Iraqi scripts based on models and specifications provided.

Most tasks can be done on evenings and weekends. Studio tasks (2 and 3) require time at the studio, scheduled during regular studio hours.

Timeframe

Tasks will require approximately 20-25 hours per week for about 4 weeks beginning no later than Monday, November 15.

The purpose of this project is to create a test of Iraqi listening comprehension for beginning learners.

Location: Washington, DC

Compensation: $35-$45 per hour depending on experience and task

Telecommuting is ok.
