This textbook offers a clear and accessible introduction to educational interpreting, focusing on the unique demands of working with deaf students in public school settings. Most interpreters begin their careers in these environments, often without specific preparation for the developmental and educational needs of deaf children. The book explores the structure of school interpreting, the roles of key stakeholders, and the language and literacy development of deaf learners. It also examines interpreter responsibilities, practical strategies, and the day-to-day logistics of classroom work. With guidance on interpreter assessment, tools for collaboration with teachers, and tips for creating inclusive classrooms, this is an essential resource for students in interpreting and related programs, as well as educators and practitioners seeking to support deaf students more effectively.
