I am with Lionbridge Federal, a language services company, and I am looking for potential interpreters of various languages spoken in Cameroon, including Ngie, Mbo, Oroko, Ngoshie, Aghem, Bamileke-Fefe, and Bamun. We work with the Federal Immigration Court system all over the country, and we currently have an increased need for interpreters of these languages. All of our interpreters work on a freelance basis, making this a great way to earn supplemental income while providing a much needed and valuable service to the community.
Thank you in advance for any response.

Dear Returned Peace Corps Volunteer:
Good morning. My name is Julius Amin, and I am doing a book length study on the Peace Corps at fifty in Cameroon. My hope is that this will come out by the time the Peace Corps celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of its service in Cameroon. The purpose of my e-mail is to introduce myself to you, and also to ask if you will be willing to complete a questionnaire from me about your service in Cameroon. Please, respond to my e-mail and I’ll forward a questionnaire to you directly (or click on the link below). Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
