Interpreter Workshop: Hot Seat Instincts – Tyler
East Texas Guild of Interpreters for the Deaf
Presents…
“Hot Seat Instincts”
Presented by: Tina Dillman
“Is it me, or is it HOT in here? “
This workshop examines some of the realities of simultaneous translation. Attendees will identify and practice techniques designed to make the “hot seat” more personally rewarding and successful. With a focus on better service to consumers, interpreters will explore a common sense approach to the cultural, linguistic, and situational incidents that fan the flames under our interpreting chairs. Hands-on activities will enhance awareness, develop composure, and the build stamina needed for “hot seat” survival.
