Course Introduction
2025 Fall Consecutive Interpreting Boot Camp
The consecutive interpreting mode is often used when interpreting for witnesses during direct examinations, cross examinations and depositions. The interpreter must remember a segment of speech and render it in the target language, requiring a strong short-term memory and solid note taking skills. You must have board range of legal knowledge and interpreting experience in order to do an excellent job at consecutive interpreting. This mode is also tested as part of the state certification exam.
Our instructor will use pre-recorded witness testimony as training material. You will improve your short-term memory and enhance your active listening skills, as well as note-taking and identifying key words. At the end of the course, students should be able to interpret in consecutive mode accurately and smoothly.
The fall camp will be held in September 2025 and is open to students planning to take the exam in 2026.
We offer small class setting, so that every student gets enough attention. Classes will form with as little as three students. Spots are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
