In their own words

Learning that stays with people

“
Stephen was an engaging trainer. Theory and practical elements of the training was well balanced. Loved the clips, visual examples and learning more whilst reflecting on my own practice, using simultaneity and dynamic equivalence interpreting. Thank you for all the additional resources and attachments shared to continue my reflection and professional development.
