Interpreting in K-12 educational settings is challenging and highly complex work, which is often done in isolation, or without much support. If you are looking for ways to take the good interpreting work that you are doing in classrooms and make it great, you won't want to miss this workshop! During this interactive workshop, we will explore the complexity of interpreting in education and discover strategies that will take your interpreting to the next level. The day will be reflective, active, and fun- so come prepared to give your brain and interpreting skills a workout!

The presenter who is putting on this amazing workshop is Jen Hayes. She is an interpreter who has a passion for teaching and learning. Jen earned her master's degree in ASL/English Interpreting Pedagogy through theUniversity of North Florida(UNF)in 2017 and her bachelor's degree in
