Create practice drills for consecutive interpreting between [LANGUAGE_A] and [LANGUAGE_B]. My level: [LEVEL]. Domain: [DOMAIN]. Time per session: [MINUTES].

Provide a progressive set: memory and paraphrase drills, note-taking symbols practice, short passages of 30 to 60 seconds in each language written by you (original text) with a list of key ideas to check recall, and a self-evaluation rubric on accuracy, completeness, delivery, and note use. Include a routine for recording and reviewing. Add ethics reminders about confidentiality and impartiality. State that practising is not a replacement for formal training and that interpreting in medical or legal settings requires qualifications.

Add a week-by-week progression over six weeks and a table to track recall accuracy as a percentage of key ideas. Provide guidance on managing stress during practice in practical terms, and a set of ten domain-specific terms to learn for the first week, labelled as a starting list that I should verify with reliable glossaries.
