Never worked with an interpreter before? Don’t sweat it!
We’ve included some helpful tips to ensure your inclusive experience goes smoothly.
Tips for Working with Educational Interpreters
- Request educational interpreting services as soon as your Deaf, Deaf-blind, or hard-of-hearing students schedule their classes. Requesting an interpreter early ensures the most qualified professional for your classroom.
- It is important to debrief with your interpreters as often as possible; provide worksheets and other study materials ahead of schedule; and ensure that the interpreter has a copy of the student’s IEP, when applicable.
- The role of the interpreter is to provide access to all communication in the classroom. This includes discussions amongst students, teachers, and other professionals who interact with or around the Deaf or hard-of-hearing students. Avoid discussing information you do not want interpreted in front of the interpreter while they are working.
- Educational interpreters are not teachers nor paraprofessionals. They should not be given any tasks to perform aside from their professional role.
- In an educational setting, all interpreters are mandated reporters in concurrence with state regulations.
- If you intend to show a video, ensure you have captions “on” or notify the interpreter in advance if captions are unavailable. Make sure the interpreter is well if the classroom lights will be dimmed or turned-off.
- Still stumped? Reach out to a coordinator to ask a question or discuss how to prepare for your service request.
