Share the timetable
Give exact session times, breaks, room changes and the overall duration. For recurring courses, provide all known dates.
Send learning materials
Slides, lesson plans, reading material, technical terms and names help interpreters prepare for the subject.
Think about session length
Long teaching days or intensive sessions may require more than one interpreter. Build interpreter breaks into the timetable.
Keep changes communicated
If a room, lecturer, topic or timetable changes, update the interpreter or agency as soon as possible.
