Fork in the road

I should write on my blog alot more.

Recently I found a job as a teacher's assistant at a community college program for adults with developmentally disablities. One of my students is Deaf and uses an interpreter, so I have had a chance to chat with the interpreters a few times. They are pretty nice, they give me friendly advice.

Sometimes when I have to help this particular student, instead of using the interpreter, I will just sign to her. The times when I am using the interpreter are when I am across the room and am helping another student, but want her to understand.

I am still looking for an ITP and received friendly advice from one of the interpreters about finding an apprenticeship and freelance work.
