During the workshop, participants will learn six individual drills designed to enhance their information processing skills. These drills range from easy to challenging and when used, will strengthen the parts of the brain responsible for dual tasking and other skills necessary for succesfful intepreting as listed below. Simultaneous Interpreting: -identifying chunks -double dual task practice -forced processing time Consecutive Interpreting -information switching -double dual task practice -increased lag time Once the participants have learned the different drills, they will get time to practice from the six varieties, based on their own skills and comfort level. These drills are designed as very user friendly and some can be practiced almost anywhere. The presentation objective is to give the participants valuable tools with which they can enhance their own information processing skills and increase their level of confidence.

It is wise for new golfers to contact me first, because if the tee times are full, then sometimes, the golf course won’t let last minute golfers play if the outing is already full. 2. These outings are NOT for beginners. Players must already know how to play golf AND have average score less than 120 for 18 holes or 60 for 9 holes. 3. Deadline is two weeks before the outing date. After that deadline, I cannot guarantee if they can play, but contact me anyway for more information. |

It is wise for new golfers to contact me first, because if the tee times are full, then sometimes, the golf course won’t let last minute golfers play if the outing is already full. 2. These outings are NOT for beginners. Players must already know how to play golf AND have average score less than 120 for 18 holes or 60 for 9 holes. 3. Deadline is two weeks before the outing date. After that deadline, I cannot guarantee if they can play, but contact me anyway for more information. |
