Transcription Trainer

Nelly Mutua

The late Nelly Mutua was one of the best transcribers in Kenya. There were very few people with her level of success and accuracy in this skill. She started from scratch and by the time of her passing on, she was able to give her young daughter the great life she deserves. Transcription gave Nelly her big break since 2009. She gained an immense wealth of skill and experience. Nelly had some of the best ratings in transcription sites and worked for both local and international clients. Unfortunately, she died on 28th February 2021. This course is no longer available for sale.

If it wasn't for this training, I wouldn't know where to start. The steps were clear and easy to follow. Nelly has been very supportive in checking on my progress - I felt that her concern was genuine and went beyond the call of duty.

Firstly, it took me longer than expected to finish it since i had been busy. Once i got back at it, it was eye opening. There has been other people who did transcribe and said it was difficult and paid little money but they did not have this e-Guide. If they had read and practiced these notes, i bet they would have had a different experience. I highly appreciate the study and i will be coming back to refer. Thank you so much for the opportunity to better myself. I have done academic writing for three years and never owned an account or a Paypal account. Now, i will open different accounts and earn directly. I am very excited and i cannot thank you enough. It was worth it and i will refer other interested people to also become transcribers and use this platform. God bless you all.

This has literally made me laugh at myself. I thought i was fast but now I realize I need to practice a lot. I had no clue about the software I have come across in this chapter. This is going to be very useful (I am even timing myself as I type this). So glad I enrolled for this course.
