“I’m really, really pleased with today’s call and wanted to give you my feedback.
Today, we had calls with two clients, and the interpreter was very flexible with both - she was very considerate and acted appropriately with both clients – these clients are really vulnerable, so I always worry when using interpreters, but she was amazing. The clients were also getting confused about some aspects and she helped explain all of the information perfectly and was very patient with them. Even when the first client was getting upset, she was very professional and did not cross her boundaries as an interpreter and made sure that I was the one providing the emotional support to the client.”
Telephone Interpreting
When a face to face meeting is not possible a telephone (or video) Interpreter is the next best thing. We provide Interpreters in any language via the telephone or video, at your request.
How Does Telephone Interpreting Work?
We have a few options. We can use your, or our, telephone conferencing equipment, patching in the Interpreter from their location. If you do not have this type of telephone conferencing equipment, feel free to use ours. We give all parties a phone number and passcode, which when dialled, adds them to the call. You can choose who pays for the call, and other helpful options such as call recording. You have complete control as the ‘administrator’ of the call.
Multilingual Appointment Making
From the start of your communications with non-English speakers, we arrange the appointments with your client and coordinate the Interpreter’s availability for you, saving essential time and hassle.
