Hi there,

Firstly, I would like to elaborate on the difference between a translator and an interpreter. Yes, they are often used interchangeably but there is a slight difference.

Translator: If you are willing to sit in a cubicle surrounded by dictionaries and preparing a document duplicating the original., is work done by a translator.

Interpreter: interpreter on the other hand is a person that acts as a mediator between two persons and translator the entire conversation.

As you're already enrolled in a course I would suggest you start with a certificate program initially. See there are three types of programs you can enroll into a degree, a diploma, and a certificate program.

As you are pursuing a degree it'll be difficult for you to get into another degree program. The best-case scenario is to go for a diploma or a certificate course. Jamia offers certificates as well as part-time diplomas. It'll be easier as the classes will only be conducted on weekends for the part-time diploma.

You could pursue a diploma or certification and Jamia or from IGNOU.

The minimum eligibility criteria are for a candidate to be 12th passed .

It is the easiest way to start as of how and will also land you an entry-level job.
