Translation, Language Teaching, and Linguistics: Perspectives from ENALLT Student

Resumo

As is well known, currently, there may be an urgent need to improve the English language command of Mexican and Latin American researchers due to the necessity to share their ideas and study findings with global audiences (Salager-Meyer et al., 2016). However, unfortunately, as was described in different studies, it may be incredibly difficult for this group of researchers to exchange ideas meaningfully in English (see Mauranen et al., 2016; for more information on this matter). For instance, as was reported by Belcher et al. (2016), a high number of scientists and scholars from this region report feeling excluded from academic and professional networks, which are often created in different international events.
