This workshop stays away from language and technicalities, barely flirts with ethics, and promises not to critique your fingerspelling. Instead, we’ll delve into the daily ins and outs of being a professional interpreter: preparing for work, introducing ourselves, gaining and maintaining trust, working with Deaf speakers as well as gracefully navigating all sorts of unexpected situations. This workshop
will be especially useful for new interpreters entering the workforce, for those with some experience who are interested in a change of setting, and for anyone who wants to increase their confidence when they find themselves in unfamiliar terrain.
