Hello, My name is Kyle. I'm a senior in high school and
extremely interested in a career in this field. I would
really love to talk to some people who know about planning
to obtain this career and who who also work in the field.

I first learned sign language in 3rd grade. I went to a
private church school and they offered sign language as
there were deaf people coming to the church. It was a k-12
school and I was the best at it out of all the students! I
would interpret the sermons for the preacher and also for
sunday school.

I had to move away in 4th grade due to some unfortunate
family circumstances, and haven't done much since. But I
do remember I was good at it and absolutely enjoyed it.

I've been searching online very much lately to find as
much information on thing like college degrees and
salaries. Salary is not the most important thing here. But
from what I've found online...See More

Hi, Kyle,

Many junior colleges have a program where you can get an A.A. degree in
interpreting.

The classes include Deaf Culture and Deaf History etc as well as sign language,
ASL, interpreting, etc.

Best of luck.
