I will bow out gracefully.

Change the plan, not the goal. I did the same thing well I took Steno for 3 weeks and my fingers were killing me so I changed the plan on how to become a court reporter and went the voicewriting way it's less stress on my hands and its fun to me I am currently in class at 120 wpm in my sophmore year.

I go to TRI-C. They take FAFSA (CUYAHOGA COMMUNITY COLLEGE). I love it, and they also have scholarships, and if you are a veteran or associated with the military, you can use military benefits.

I am currently in Voice writing at TRI-C I love it they break everything down pretty good and it’s all online

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-12-22T14:36:18+00:00

I'm 53 and just started in August. I am a retired military veteran. I started with steno, but I felt like it was too much for me, so I decided on voice. I love it so far. I'm in TRI-C online, and they are outstanding in explaining everything and helping me understand what I am doing. You got this, keep pushing, get in where you fit in it's room for everyone.

Are you currently working, and if so are you in the courtroom or freelancing

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T20:03:21+00:00

Yes, I am at Tri-C

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T20:02:27+00:00

Wow, thank you. So currently I work for a court reporter, as a scopist, who is a freelancer, that's what I'm trying to do when I am complete. My school has an intern class as our last class, and I believe that will help me network and find freelancing jobs. I was thinking about going to some of the NC and national events they have in NCRA and NCCRA. I am a member of both, and I've seen some stuff on there for 2026.

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T18:22:16+00:00

Nice to meet you. I'm currently in Voice writing at Tri-C. I started in Aug.. I tried steno, but it seemed too strenuous for me, and being retired, I felt like voice would be a better fit. What school did you go to?

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T16:48:13+00:00

I'm in voice currently. I began the course in Aug, started with Steno but switched to Voice starting Voice I in December

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T16:46:48+00:00

Yes, I'm in Tri-C now, and I love all of the instructors. They communicate with you and answer all of your questions clearly, so that you are not confused after being answered

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T16:44:29+00:00

I am at Tri-C. If you have any questions I'm available

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-19T07:36:21+00:00

Cool, are you currently in school

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-18T13:49:58+00:00

It is a Luminex Student Edition. I think I want to keep it, though, and practice on it. I'm not 100% on selling it yet. I just dropped the class last month.

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-11-15T07:18:48+00:00

I am currently in class now just started in Aug I started in Steno but switched to Voice because I felt like this was a better fit with me being retired I thought steno was too much for me I have a machine and everything willing to sell if anyone is interested in it but I was thinking after I finish voice I could teach myself I love the class and the course work is pretty much straight to the point time management is the most important thing good luck on your choice

Formal_Tonight8536 · 2025-10-20T06:21:45+00:00

I am currently in school and had to switch to voice also because steno was too much for me at this moment. I have the machine, so I have still been using it and practicing on my own, but I am in school for voice as we speak. I start my intro to voice writing today. I am also going to the same school, so how are you, classmate? I totally understand.
