My workshops benefit participants at all levels. Countless advanced interpreters have let me know that they enjoyed learning updated\/new signs that they haven\u2019t seen before, such as regional accents. They also loved it when I explained how to sign messages into ASL, rather than just signing in English word by word.\u00a0 Interpreters appreciate that my workshops are excellent for review as well as for discovering new things that apply within the professional work environment.
