Are you looking for a flexible online English enhancement course to improve your English retour?
With this webinar-style fortnight-long programme taught by an experienced trainer, you can boost your skills and confidence and become more marketable.
High quality retour training can be difficult to access, and/or expensive.
I’m often asked about short courses for interpreters wishing to improve their English retour. They do exist, but they are in short supply in Europe, and they tend to run in August. Many people can’t attend for reasons to do with time or affordability. Yet a strong retour can open new markets for you.
That’s why I’ve decided to offer a new concept in retour training: a fortnight-long short course, ‘bootcamp’ style (but less brutal – hence the name booStcamp!), run entirely digitally. The focus will be on English enhancement, rather than interpreting, although there will be opportunities to work into English and get some feedback.
The 2023 Spring booStcamp is a unique way to improve or maintain your retour in your own time. You can come along to all the sessions in real time, or you can watch the recordings when you have time, if you can’t attend all the sessions ‘live’.
You can choose to register EITHER as a full member, OR an auditor.
BOTH of these options include:
- English enhancement sessions devised by an experienced interpreting coach who is a native speaker of English
- teaching materials tailor-made for interpreters, with an emphasis on English usage (terminology, syntax) and skills
In addition, full members will have a daily practice session, where they can interpret ‘live’ and receive feedback on their work.
All A languages are welcome.

Hello. I was interested in this workshop? Is it every Sunday in March?
What is the cost? Also I am an American Sign Language Interpreter, would I still be ok to take this? I love linguistics and!
HI Taylor, First of all, the BooStcamp workshop runs for 10 working days (Mon-Fri) over 2 weeks. You can find all the details on the sales page. The course is designed for spoken language interpreters for whom English is a second language.
