Note Taking

Interpreters can use a very useful tool, which is note taking. In this way, interpreters can take notes or words and link them in order to re-express the idea in the target language.
Sometimes this is not an easy task to everyone, because it requires excellent concentration and link between writing, understanding and listening.
For me, note taking is one more tool. It helps in certain situations (for example, using an specific vocabulare area such as medical or finantial), to have a "smoother" experience.
There are different ways in which you can learn note taking, you can use the symbols that already exists, or you can create your own system.
