Other Online Jobs at Home for Transcriptionist

In my opinion, if a transcriptionist has a good grasp of the English language specifically basic grammar and has good pronunciation skills, I think, they can be an online English teacher working from home. There are a lot of home based companies all over the world particularly Asia who are looking for online English teachers to work from their homes.

Being such entails good listening skills and typing skills as well. The reason for this is because they have to be able to correct the student with as much precision with regards to their grammar and pronunciation slips. Having a good listening skill, thus, helps.

In accordance with this, they have to type down the wrong sentences of the student and then correct them afterward by typing in again the correct sentences. In this field, you have to be adept with the basic grammar rules. I think I transcriptionist can definitely do this job.

I for one am an Online English teacher and I wanted to have another source of income so I thought why not become a transcriptionist. I tried a couple of projects and I also did some editing with it also and I did pretty well. The only thing with transcription is the accent of the audio file you are transcribing. If you aren’t familiar with it, you’ll find it very hard to transcribe.

Aside from being an English teacher, I think a transcriptionist could be a relay operator. Although, I’m not quite sure if this offers a home-based job if there are then this would be a very could option for them. The only thing you do here is transcribed what two people are saying to each other with as much accuracy as possible.

This is real-time transcription so you have to have a very good typing speed and proficiency. The only thing with this line of job is the working hours. Most clients are, I think, from European countries so you have to adjust to their time zone.

It’s during this time when people in our country are all fast asleep. And from what I know, it’s also high paying because not everyone can handle this kind of account.

Home based call center agent could also be another alternative. There are companies which offer this type of job as it is very convenient for you and for the company as well, and at the same time well compensated. Though again, the working shift is on wee hours of the night ‘til morning. Being well paid in this career depends on the account that you will handle. The Philippines has become the center of the BPO Industry so this type of job is still currently in demand. At the same time companies are giving elaborate benefits to their employees because of the work shift they offer.
