beginners to the very advanced (Basic level (A1) to Advanced Level (C2).

learning strategies to ensure success. For example, speaking exercises are combined

Translation and Interpretation
Why use OMS for Interpreting?
OMS provides quality interpretation services in an extensive range of languages. Our
interpreters are chosen for their linguistic skills, technical expertise, and sensitivity to the
cultural nuances of conducting business in another culture. We provide professional
interpreters for a variety of situations, including the following:
•Conferences
•Trade Shows
•Meetings
OMS offers…………….
1. Simultaneous Interpretation is most commonly used in conferences, court
proceedings, or business presentations. It is the parallel act of interpreting in the target
language while the speaker continues to speak in the source language. There is no break in
the oral presentation by the speaker. For larger parties, special equipment may be required,
including
headphones,
microphones
and
a
small
booth.
2. Consecutive Interpretation involves the participants and the interpreter talking after
one another. One participant will speak a short paragraph of 3 or 4 sentences, and then
pause to allow the interpreter to relay the meaning, in the target language, to the other
participant. The advantages of this method are that it allows the parties to take their time,

separate their conversation into
meaningful
units, and get clarification on new or unfamiliar
ideas as they are presented.
