This article is devoted to the analysis of the process of note-taking in consecutive interpretation in students and how efficient it is depending on the individual. The focus of this report is on note-taking technique which is believed to be a major one in consecutive interpreting training based on the interpreting studies literature. Note taking is a technique for interpreters to support their short-term memory when reformulating the original speech. It is essential to understand that the interpreter’s notes are not everything, they are a support for the memory, but it is not recommendable for the interpreter to rely exclusively on their notes.
