What is supervision?

Supervision is a personal learning process in which you learn to reflect on your role as a professional. In our profession we work with people and that involves subconscious issues. Our own subconscious can also influence our work. The goal of supervision is to gain insight into the role your own thoughts, expectations, feelings, values and subconscious play in your work as a PresentChild® Translator.

What does supervision offer?

Supervision offers insights into your own actions as a PresentChild® Translator, both during consultations and whilst translating. Being able to look in the mirror of your (professional) pitfalls and qualities will lead to a deepening of your translation skills and thus to growing self-confidence in yourself as a PresentChild® Translator.

When is supervision advisable?

There doesn’t have to be a huge problem in order to undergo supervision. It is about blind spots in yourself that supervision can uncover so offering a valuable opportunity to learn and grow as a PresentChild® Translator.
