Rusty consecutive? How to refresh your note-taking skills

Hi! Welcome to the Complete Interpreter podcast by the Interpreting Coach.

Why 'Complete Interpreter'? Because you're not just a translation machine, you're also a person and a business owner, and I hope to help you take a 360 view of yourself share some great tried-and-tested strategies to improve your interpreting skills, mindset, and marketing.

In this episode, I talk about how to go about refreshing your consecutive note-taking skills if they're a bit rusty!

Here are some of the options I mention:
- Andy Gillies: "Consecutive Interpreting: A Short Course"
- Julia Poger on LinkedIn (recent course: Know your Worth presents Smart Consecutive Interpreting)
- David Violet's practice sessions

My Consecutive Club, with weekly guided practice sessions on Mondays at 1300 CET, tutorial videos, practice speeches in English, and more. Suitable for conference interpreters wishing to practise long consecutive.

My Consecutive Clinic collection of self-paced modules tackling specific note-taking challenges, for those who prefer self-study. Again, suitable for people practising long consecutive, who've already mastered the basics. You can purchase the whole collection, or individual modules.

What are your thoughts about refreshing your consecutive skills? What has worked best for you?

Let me know what you'd like me to talk about next!
