Is working on Upwork with a translator a crazy idea?

Question

Upwork

It's very hard to learn English. I can read and write at the intermediate level, but no matter how hard I try, listening does not rise above the beginner. There is an idea to make websites, and to communicate with the customer, use a translator girl. In a couple of days, tell her what a domain, hosting, etc. is. Is it possible on Upwork?

Answer 1

50% of success on Upwork is the ability to find an approach to the customer and the ability to promote yourself.
If you are a really cool programmer, many years of experience, a level above the middle, then it makes sense.
Otherwise, it's better not to.

Answer 2

avr1972 Tell us where you are now? Do you leave requests for orders? Have you ever been chosen? Do you communicate with the help of a human translator?
