Prerequisites:
Simultaneous interpreting provides an immediate interpretation of a speaker's utterances. A Simultaneous interpreter reproduces the speech in the target language as it is being delivered in the source language. Through simulations, role plays and audio/visual exercises participants will develop skills in simultaneous whispering interpreting without the use of electronic equipment. Subsequent to the theory overview, participants will practice: active listening, shadowing, retelling, paraphrasing, memory exercises and self-evaluation. Based on exposure to exercises and simulations, participants will develop and practice skills and techniques used in simultaneous interpreting in various settings and contexts.
