How to use a scribe...
Relax
Speak up
Talk normally
Plan what you want to say in your head or on paper
Take time – don’t say errm… or ‘like’
Use extra time to check and get your answers read to you if you can
Block out other noises
Keep hands busy if you need to
Practice with someone
Don’t forget to say when to put in full stops, commas etc.
Keep your train of thought
Don’t be rushed by a silence
If you like the scribe ask if you can have them again!
