Consecutive Interpretation

Consecutive Interpretation is performed when the presenter will say a few lines of speech and wait for the interpreter to repeat what was just said. This is often done with a single interpreter. But for longer session it would be necessary for the interpreters to work as a team. Consecutive interpretation is only effective when speaking to an audience comprised of one foreign language. This approach will at least double the time it takes to hold a meeting and breaks up the flow of the information. It is only recommended for simple training sessions, small meetings, educational presentations and topics of short duration.
