What I do
Four modes of interpreting. Which one your event needs depends on the number of participants, the programme and the equipment on site.
Simultaneous interpreting
Conferences, forums, board meetings. We work in pairs and take turns every 15–30 minutes, so the interpretation stays precise all day.
Learn more →Consecutive interpreting
Negotiations, protocol meetings, missions, workshops, site visits. No equipment needed; speaking time grows by half or doubles.
Learn more →Remote simultaneous interpreting
Webinars, online and hybrid meetings: interpretation channel in Zoom, Interprefy, SpeakUs, Webex, Microsoft Teams.
Learn more →Delegation support
Meetings, negotiations and the business programme — in Kazakhstan and on trips of Kazakh delegations abroad.
Learn more →Subjects: economy and finance, customs and trade, law and justice, healthcare and JCI accreditation, energy and mining, public administration. I also translate documents.
How to prepare for your event
Precise interpretation starts long before the first word of the speaker. This is what I ask the organiser for.
- ProgrammeAgenda, list of speakers and their titles — as soon as they are confirmed.
- MaterialsSlides, speeches, an industry glossary. From them I build my own glossary and check the terms with you.
- EquipmentWho is responsible for booths, consoles and receivers, or for the online interpreting platform. Sound check the day before.
- ModeSimultaneous or consecutive, one interpreter or a pair — I will help you choose by programme and budget.
