Simultaneous interpreter Tatyana Shvets

A meeting with a foreign partner is proceeding as usual until someone on site starts speaking English — and half the room loses the thread. Especially if the speech is dense with terminology: supplies, certification, technical regulations. It is usually in such pauses that it becomes clear that not just any interpreter can be trusted.

Tatyana Shvets is an oral interpreter of English, working in simultaneous and consecutive modes. Candidate of Art History, Associate Professor of the English Language Department No. 1 at MGIMO under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, teaches a simultaneous interpretation course in the master's program 'Training Interpreters for International Organizations'. For seven years prior to that, she taught military-technical translation at the A. F. Mozhaysky Military Space Academy. Co-author of four English language textbooks and a textbook on military-technical translation, editor of the English-language part of a multilingual dictionary of military-technical terms, author of distance courses on military-technical translation and translation in the field of culture and art.

On site it looks like this: a booth or on-site work, the speaker talks at their own pace, and the audience hears smooth speech without stumbling over numbers and abbreviations. Her background includes speaking at the Summer and Winter Translation Schools of the Union of Translators of Russia, Translation Forum Russia, the Global Dialogue interpreting forum, business programs of the Army forum and the MAKS-2019 airshow. In other words, stages where a terminology mistake is most costly.
