Consecutive Interpreting

Consecutive Interpreting Service: Your Trusted Language Bridge

A consecutive interpreter conveys interpretation into the target language turn-by-turn after listening to a speech while taking notes, ensuring accurate and effective cross-cultural dialogue. Therefore, consecutive interpreting requires a broader skill set than just language proficiency, including active listening, note-taking, memory, cultural competence, adaptability, concentration, and delivery skills. Essentially, consecutive interpreting is a complex cognitive and linguistic task that requires a combination of innate abilities and honed skills.

In recent years, many local and international institutions have trusted Wordsmith Group to bridge language barriers in their events, becoming an integral part of achieving their missions and goals.

As an official member of the Association of Indonesian Conference Interpreters (AICI), Wordsmith Group interpreters have extensive experience as interpreters in local and international events.

Every experienced consecutive interpreter has their own techniques for taking notes and memorizing, two very important aspects in consecutive interpreting.

Consecutive interpreters generally do not require special equipment, a notebook and a pen are often sufficient when working as an interpreter.

  • Group discussion
  • Medical situation
