Direct instruction and practice in consecutive interpreting lead to greater accuracy in simultaneous interpreting. Consecutive interpreting has many applications in real world interpreting and also serves as a stepping-stone to simultaneous interpreting. Consecutive Interpreting from English contains carefully constructed exercises that are keyed to the corresponding DVD. Each unit contains discussion questions, study questions and a follow-up process that encourages self-analysis and accountability for one's work.

Both volumes include the following topics:

History of Consecutive Interpreting
Errors in interpretation
Listening
Memory
Reformulation
Monitoring and Correction

Consecutive Interpreting from English and Consecutive Interpreting from ASL (coming in 2015!) are designed as companion volumes. When used together they strengthen consecutive interpreting skills to and from ASL.

Educators, interpreting students and working interpreters can all benefit from either the Study Set or the Teacher's Guide which contains all of the information in the Study Set plus added features including examples of appropriate responses to the questions in the student's workbook and tips for teaching. Working interpreters, through independent study, can earn up to two CEU's for each volume.
