Translation is a real-life, natural activity and is increasingly necessary in a global environment and as a future job. The article aims to describe individual and collaborated activities instructors use inside classes to train students who study translation as a major. Translation activities can be personal or in groups. Both categories involve sub- divisions. As teachers of translation in universities, we attempt to implement a variety of tasks in our classes to reinforce our students’ capabilities and remove the toughness of translation on the other hand. Identifying the type of activity that is suitable for students’ level will be a first step in introducing translation activities into classrooms. Teachers should plan every move, keeping in mind their learners’ capabilities and selecting the suitable time for each task. For enhancing students, there is a need for discussion and assessment. The method followed in this article is descriptive and theoretical. This work will be of significant importance and a guide for teachers in this area, given that there is little research on the subject.
