Tourism

Last week we were dealing with the subject of tourism. Check the video about San Lorenzo festivities in Huesca, Aragon (Spain). As usual, use the video to practice your note-taking and interpreting skills.

Telephone Interpreting-Spanish

I follow several groups on facebook on ESL or interpreting related issues. Through one of them I received this video about telephone interpreting published by the University of Vigo. Check the University of Vigo website and use this video for practice in interpreting an introduction to the key note speaker. There are several videos for this lecture. The one I selected is the beginning of the lecture. Note how the presenter mentions Australia! As usual, use the video to take notes and practise your interpreting skils.
