Everyone learns at his or her<br \/>\nown pace. Yet when it comes time to put those skills to the test, most<br \/>\npeople have the same elevation in stress level. If you don\u2019t know what<br \/>\nto expect, have no chance to do a \u201cpractice run\u201d, the stress can be<br \/>\noverwhelming. This workshop is designed to help participants better<br \/>\nunderstand what the current BEI testing system looks like and what to<br \/>\nexpect when taking it. We will then look at general ideas and<br \/>\ntechniques that can help in any interpreting performance test<br \/>\nsituation. There will be opportunities to practice audio texts in both<br \/>\nASL and English, with material that approximates the difficulty level<br \/>\nand speed of the BEI Basic test, as well as looking at ways to showcase<br \/>\nthe features of each language. Additionally, there will be<br \/>\nopportunities to practice sight translation techniques so that<br \/>\nparticipants will understand not only what is expected of them, but<br \/>\nalso have an idea of how to demonstrate a thorough knowledge of this<br \/>\naspect of interpreting.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing what is expected and having a strategy in mind to help meet<br \/>\nthose expectations can greatly reduce the \u201cfear of the unknown\u201d that<br \/>\nmany interpreters face when taking a performance test. This workshop<br \/>\nwill provide ideas to help reduce text anxiety, and allow interpreters<br \/>\na greater level of confidence when putting those newly learned<br \/>\ninterpreting skills to the test.<\/p>\n<p>Cost $25.00 &#8211; All Proceeds going to the Marvin B Loeb Scholarship for<br \/>\nTarrant County College<\/p>\n<p>To register download the flyer from<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hiredhandsinc.com\/334\/ready-set-test-april-28-2012\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.hiredhandsinc.com\/334\/ready-set-test-april-28-2012\/<\/a><br \/>\nFor Questions Call Joanie Uresti at 817-236-3323<\/p>\n<p>CONTACT PERSON NAME: Joanie Uresti<br \/>\nCONTACT EMAIL ADDRESS: info@hiredhandsinc.com<br \/>\nCONTACT TELEPHONE #: 817-236-3323 V<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interpreter Workshop: Ready, Set, Test!
