    Note-Taking for Consecutive Interpreting: A Skill-Building Workshop


    DESCRIPTION:

    Note-taking for consecutive interpreting is an important skillset for interpreters. In this workshop, we will discuss theoretical and practical aspects of note-taking for consecutive, with a focus on dialogue interpreting. A significant portion of the workshop will be dedicated to practice. Attendees should bring paper and writing utensils that they can use for note-taking practice. The workshop is primarily aimed at interpreters who have had little or no formal instruction in consecutive note-taking; it will also be of interest to those seeking a refresher on consecutive note-taking techniques.


    LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

    In this workshop, participants will:

    • Discuss the place of note-taking for consecutive interpreting in the interpreter’s toolkit
    • Apply approaches & techniques for note-taking for consecutive interpreting
    • Engage in activities aimed at increasing note-taking skill
