This almost makes me wish I did more translating. 😁

An unmissable FREE event for translators - I know what it takes to organise a big online summit, and I'm happy to watch from the sidelines this time! 😆

This is a fun challenge for interpreting students.

If you're trying to brush up your notes, have a go at today's practice speech (part of a 5-day note-taking challenge) to help you use the margin and identify links between ideas.

I'm sorry to say the Chinese and Russian pages on Speechpool are down.
I am working to find a fix, but can't promise anything at this stage.

In case you're feeling stressed! From my sister site, The Interpreting Coach.

Self-care for interpreters: why you should eat Greek yoghurt, why exercise is good for your ears, but also why simple lifestyle changes can improve several aspects of your health in one fell swoop.
Even if these changes sound a bit dull and simplistic.

Fellow trainers, I've finally found a solution to teaching simultaneous online that works for me, using Watch2Gether.
I know some of you have said you couldn't adjust the sound levels independently (trainer + student), but I had no problem with this.

@InterRausch @language_news @Dolm_in_NRW @Deutsch_Profi Alas yes, still Youtube, until Speechpool 2.0 comes online (**gnashes her teeth**champs at the bit**).
