Telephonic Interpreting

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................

A telephonic interpreting session is essentially a 3-way conference call with a language specialist. A telephonic interpreter can help you communicate with people who speak languages you don’t understand and help those people communicate with you. The only difference between an in-person interpreter and a telephonic interpreter is that the telephonic interpreter provides interpreting service over the phone, while the in-person interpreter is physically present at the interpreting session. Telephonic interpreting developed as a convenient way to bridge a language gap when an in-person interpreter was not available. Telephonic interpreting is particularly helpful in urgent situations or when it is not feasible to have the interpreter and the person you are trying to communicate with in the same room together. To use the service ITI clients simply dial a toll-free number and input a pre-assigned identification code. They will then be connected to an interpreter within minutes of placing the call. This convenient service is available on a 24/7 basis!
