Who Should Use Telephonic Interpreting?
Telephonic interpreting is used in situations that don’t allow for face-to-face interpreting. Whether time, distance or cost prohibit the use of a live interpreter, telephonic interpreting provides a convenient, fast way to communicate.
We always suggest using face-to-face interpreting whenever possible, as visual cues and non-verbal communication factors into any interaction. However, you may not have a Kirundi interpreter in your area, or an emergency might necessitate an immediate response. For these and similar scenarios, telephonic interpreting is the next best solution.
Interpreters for Hospitals, Schools, Government & Business
The telephonic interpreters of Baystate Interpreters, Inc are experts in their fields, with years of training not only as a linguist, but also within a professional discipline.
When you call for interpretation services, we match you with an experienced interpreter in the language — and industry — you specify. This means that you’ll always have a qualified medical interpreter for health care-related calls, a legal interpreter for courtroom calls, as well as experts in a wide range of professional fields, from banking to engineering to retail marketing.
By using only highly-trained specialists, Baystate Interpreters, Inc saves you time and money through greater efficiency. Our subject experts are well-versed in the specialized vocabulary of their fields — which means less time spent looking up new or unfamiliar terms, and a smoother interpreting experience for all parties.
Additional Interpreting Services
In addition to our fast-response telephonic interpreting service, Baystate provides on-site interpreting solutions for those occasions that require a personal presence, from courtroom hearings to independent medical examinations to multilingual business conferences.
Consecutive interpreting accommodates both formal and informal settings, such as court proceedings, hospital visits and parent-teacher conferences. A proceeding with consecutive interpretation will require additional time because all other speakers are silent as the linguist interprets each response.
Simultaneous interpreting, also called conference interpreting or UN-style interpreting, is used for business meetings, symposiums, conferences and nearly any event that requires interpretation into more than one language. Through the use of sophisticated audio equipment, the interpretation takes place as the words are spoken — not after.
For meetings, conventions and presentations of all kinds, Baystate Interpreters, Inc provides world-class interpreting and the specialized conference equipment that makes it possible. From soundproof booths to wireless headsets, the audio engineers of Baystate set up and monitor the necessary equipment so you don’t have to.
