9. Sign Language Interpreters The interpreter’s role is to facilitate communication. In general, the interpreter will stand or sit so the student is able to see who is speaking, any visual aids and the interpreter at the same time. Keep sight lines open as much as possible. Look directly at the person you are communicating with not the interpreter. Please refrain from asking the interpreter to function as an assistant or a participant in class activities.
