Requirements / organisational issues:
Have you always wanted to get a taste of interpreting? Then the introductory course is just the thing! Here you will learn about consecutive and simultaneous interpreting in the language pair Polish-German and can get your first taste of cabin air.
In this course we will work out and practice the different forms of consecutive and simultaneous interpreting. The different interpreting techniques and interpreting situations require different interpreting strategies.
In this course you will learn how to present yourself professionally, how to train your memory, how to optimize your comprehension skills and how to strengthen your analytical skills. The focus in this course is on hands-on practice and getting to know interpreting! And maybe you will like interpreting so much that you would like to do the Master Translation with a focus on conference interpreting? We would be very happy about that!
