- To acquire basic interpreting skills (Russian-German)
- Raising awareness of the quality criteria of interpreting services
- Memory: training with regard to interpreting
- Self-evaluation: identifying one's own weaknesses and strengths and trying to optimise one's own performance while being aware of them
- Feedback: practice giving and receiving feedback to colleagues; verbalise and argue one's own impression when listening.
- Stress resistance: find individual ways to deal with stress in interpreting situations.
- Basics of note-taking techniques for consecutive interpreting
CONTENTS
Trying out different modes and ways of working:
- Short consecutive interpreting sessions (Russian - German and vice versa)
- On-sight interpreting
- chuchotage (whispered interpreting)
- Relay interpreting (if the language combination of the participants is suitable)
- Memory exercises (with more or less notation)
- Getting to know different subject areas and contexts (research as preparation for interpreting assignments)
METHODS
- Working with texts (videos and speeches), with and without preparation
- Consecutive interpreting with subsequent discussion in the group or in small groups
- Terminology and vocabulary work through given and freely chosen topics (creating and giving short presentations)
- Development of oral expression skills in both working languages (Russian and German)
