Summary

To become a certified BEI (Board for the Evaluation of Interpreters) American Sign Language Interpreter, one must first pass the TEP (Test of English Proficiency). However, many Interpreter Training Programs do not focus on this element of becoming an interpreter. This English exam is paramount in ensuring the interpreter is ready to interpret from their L1 to their L2; in order to effectively interpret English/American Sign Language, one must be proficient in both languages. This workbook/textbook helps aspiring interpreters prepare for the five-part exam that will test their knowledge of: Reading Comprehension, Synonyms, Grammar & Usage, Sentence Completion, and Antonyms.

TEP Total Prep gives a comprehensive look at the exam, dives deeper into the English Language and its nuances, all while touching on why passing this exam will help aspiring interpreters be successful in their new careers.
