Advanced Consecutive Interpreting - TRAN884
This unit teaches consecutive interpreting practice at an advanced level. It enables students to develop their consecutive interpreting skills in three stages: Stage One is devoted to consecutive without note-taking, which is to train students to understand the logic of speeches and the role of memorization. Stage Two requires students to interpret extemporaneous and short speeches (of 3 minutes) to improve their intensive analytical listening and their understanding of the structural organization of those speeches. In Stage Three students are required to manage increasingly difficult and challenging speeches of 5-10 minutes duration on commercial, technical and political topics.
