[IAEP] volunteer translators needed

[Caroline Meeks]

Hi Tim and Beth,

We are training a group of volunteers from the Haitian Coalition in Etoys
tomorrow.  We have some practice at teaching Etoys at this point.

How/what would you like me to teach them about translating?

What is the minimum they need to know to start helping you?

Thanks,
Caroline
