Anyways, what I meant by the Inverted Pyramid Theory thing - I was wondering if you had heard of it in your areas? We talked about that in my interpreting classes...it's very interesting...

Yes, I have heard of it, and I can see where it would be useful for some students. My son, however, was familiar with how to use an interpreter and what a terp's role was. Plus, he has always been very independent, and resented an interpreter stepping outside of her role. His attitude was, "If I need help, I'll ask for it." Perhaps a bit cocky, but that sense of independence has served him well over the years, LOL.
