AND PROFESSIONAL TRAINING |

I got my degree in Sign Language Interpreting from the
University of Applied Sciences Magdeburg-Stendal after 4 years of
study and training in 2003. |
|
| |
From December 2004 till September 2006 I have been working as an
Interpreter for German and German Sign Language in the Munich area.
Currently I am working on improving my skills in English and American
Sign Language (ASL) to be able to work as an ASL Interpreter. |
|
| |
I am open for any questions about Sign Language Interpreting or
related topics - preferably before or after the interpreting appointment
itself. |
|
| |
WHAT DOES AN INTERPRETER DO? OR WHAT
TO EXPECT FROM AN INTERPRETER |
|
| |
| LANGUAGE PROFIENCY, KNOWLEDGE
ABOUT AND AWARENESS OF CULTURAL DIFFERENCES |
With my
work I provide the means of communication between the hearing
and the deaf participants |
|
| PROFESSIONAL DISCRETION |
Everything that is said during the
interpreting appointment is dealt with confidentiality. |
|
| NEUTRALITY |
I will not take sides and will not
include any personal opinion. |
