Abstract
-
This study focuses on my journey through trying to become a qualified educational interpreter while trying to connect with my interpreting process. Over a year, data were collected to be analyzed for patterns of error that I could improve. As areas of error were identified in my practice, my work was evaluated through two Colonomos models. This allowed me to learn where my errors were originating in my process. Through reflective practice, I was able to learn from experience and create skill focused practice to improve those areas, which is focusing on improving one skill rather than a list of them. From this study, I learned that a huge roadblock in my improvement was my confidence. I had to learn to improve my confidence to support my interpreting skill growth. In the end, I realized the importance of working on the interpreter as a whole.
