Hayley Dawson | Respeaking Training & Subtitling Courses

This service is for you if you’re a language professional looking to offer respeaking services or if you’re an employer looking to upskill your team.

Why train in respeaking?

Be in demand
Respeaking (known as voice-writing in the USA) is a sought-after service and demand is growing. The virtual events industry – an important setting for respeakers – has grown to over $400 billion from just $77 billion in 2019.

Promote inclusivity
Contribute to making the world a more inclusive place. Connect to a growing network of language professionals.

Share your knowledge
You may even decide to train other respeakers in the future. One of my students now delivers their own webinars whilst another teaches respeaking in a university.

“Thanks to her support I have successfully started my career in speech-to-text interpreting.”
“Hayley is an outstanding trainer and researcher. I had the pleasure to have her as my trainer last year while completing my interlingual respeaking course with the University of Vigo. She constantly provided valuable feedback and used her own research output and high-quality academic resources in all the modules we studied. Her capacity to motivate and encourage her students is outstanding and it is because of her support and commitment to providing high-quality teaching that I have been able to successfully start my professional career in interlingual speech-to-text interpreting. Thank you, Hayley.”

“Hayley provides excellent, personalised feedback”
“I wanted to boost my live subtitling skills and get into interlingual respeaking. The content of the course helped me improve what I already knew and I learnt new tools to keep developing. The lessons are well-structured, complete and very educational. Hayley provides excellent, personalised feedback with detailed comments and corrections giving clear opportunities for improvement.”

“Hayley has my complete admiration and respect.”
“I took the respeaking course that Hayley taught at the University of Vigo and it was an incredible experience. She’s an extraordinary teacher. She’s patient, kind, dedicated and has a positive attitude. Hayley always gives constructive feedback and she knows how to listen to her students and communicates clearly. Her training material is perfectly organised, she loves her job and sharing her knowledge. She’s willing to learn from others and change things that don’t work well. Hayley has my complete admiration and respect. I’ve learned a lot from her and I unreservedly recommend her as a respeaker and trainer.”
