Applied Japanese (11): English-Japanese Interpreting Skills 2 (LS-L6)
(ALERT: The first class will be held in-person in Room 10-101) The classroom is subject to change and will be announced accordingly.
The goal of this course is to train effective and well-rounded communicators in both English and Japanese, through proven techniques used in the realm of professional conference interpretation, augmented by unique and practical exercises designed by the instructor specifically for PEAK and USTEP/AIKOM students, whose career goals generally are NOT directed towards conference interpretation.
Students will not only learn specialized skills of professional interpreting such as shadowing, sight translation, consecutive and simultaneous interpreting, but also attain fundamental language competencies such as:
1) Rendering timely and concise summaries of news and editorials in Japanese
2) Performing recitations of Japanese literary works to enhance public speaking skills
3) Engaging in self-reflections about their own strengths and weaknesses as a bilingual communicator.
Topics to be covered in each class will be cross-disciplinary and highly relevant to today's world. The instructor is every mindful of students' academic interests and career goals, and will adjust the course plan accordingly.
The instructor has over 25 years of experience as an independent conference interpreter, working
with government, Fortune 500 companies, international law firms, UN agencies and non-governmental organizations.
Her international experience consists of growing up in 5 countries on 3 continents + Japan, as well as two stints in the U.S. as a graduate student.
The course is intended to be highly interactive, hence would be kept small. Please also see Notes on Registration.
