Translation & Interpreting for Schools

Educational success creates an important foundation that allows students to be successful in their professional and personal lives. However, a student has less of a chance to succeed if they have difficulty understanding English while going through school. Having educational interpreters present at schools and educational institutions will give LEP students and students who are deaf or hard of hearing the opportunity to be successful.

At Metaphrasis, we provide school interpreters and translation services in the Chicago, IL area and throughout the U.S. Our educational interpreters will bridge the language gap for students in need so they can understand what they are being taught and be understood themselves.

Metaphrasis is devoted to working with ethnically and culturally diverse populations because we believe at our core that Everyone Deserves to be Understood.

Empowering Your Community with Educational Interpreters

With Metaphrasis as your educational translator and interpretation partner, cultivating a strong relationship with your school community can be that much simpler.  By enhancing a family’s experience in a language they understand and providing the resources your staff requires, you may ultimately increase the quality of parent engagement, ensure a rich and fruitful learning environment, and help your organization comply with federal regulations.

Here are just a few ways we partner with school districts to enhance communication and a family’s experience through the use of professional foreign language translations, interpreting, American Sign Language, trainings, and professional development:

• Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings
• Parent teacher conferences
• Counseling sessions
• Enrollment
• In-class student support services
• American Sign Language (ASL) interpreting
• Written communications including consent forms and assessments
