18K12, Post-Secondary, Community/Freelance, Medical, Mental Health, Legal, Government, CorporateVirtuallyJasmine is a master mentor and provides distance mentoring for interpreters wishing to enter into private practice or improve their interpreting and/or ethical decision-making skills.

“Seek first to understand, Then to be understood.” -Stephen Covey, Seven Habits of Highly Effective People

This quote guides her process as a mentor. The mentee leads the process and determines what would best fit their needs. As the mentor, Jasmine is a supportive reflection whose role is to encourage and challenge the mentee in their growth process.

Her areas of strength as a mentor include:
– Working in private practice
– The unique demands of rural interpreting
– Developing morally defensible ethical decision-making skills
– Discourse analysis to improve interpreting skills and language fluency
– Meeting the mentee where they are and developing a customized plan to improve skills that they identify as areas to improve in their work
