Consecutive Interpreting Practice (EN to EN): COVID-19 Screening

This is a written and recorded script about a man and his family being screened for COVID-19 symptoms before entering the building where he has an appointment. This is now an all-too-common scenario at in-person appointments, so I have posted both this version in English/English and a version in English/Spanish (EN/ES).

You're very welcome! That's very true, learning to be an interpreter requires a lot of training, a lot of practice, and a lot of patience. But if you set your mind to it, you can do it!

Is this realistically the pace you often would have? I’m trying to consider if I could mentally handle this career option… if it’s this pace, I think so! But faster… I don’t think I could do it

[@KellyGrzechHenriquez]

How I normally write scripts is based on my real experiences as an in-person interpreter (not including *anything* that would be considered confidential!) and the speed with which interactions typically occur. Occasionally I may slow things down a little, but generally speaking, the speed of these videos is pretty representative of the speed I encounter in the field.
Now, that being said, if you are ever in a situation in which someone is speaking too quickly, you can always interject using third-person protocol and ask the speakers to speak more slowly, or in shorter phrases. You'd then interpret this into the other language for transparency.
