From 5 to 8 October SCIT hosted Liam Long, DG SCIC senior interpreter. His master-classes were an introduction into interpreter note-taking. As an experienced interpreter he explained the purpose and principles of note-taking for interpreter’s work and shared some elements of his personal note-taking system. Also, the master-classes provided an excellent opportunity for the students to practice consecutive interpreting and to get feedback from an expert. The master-classes were also attended by the IFL students, Herzen University, as observers.
