We make sure language is never the reason a child doesn't get the help they need at school. Interpretation and translation, built for the work of special education in New Jersey.
00 — By the numbers
Twenty years of language services for New Jersey families and the schools that serve them.
01 — Where to begin
Both lead somewhere we can help.
A — for districts
Interpreters for IEP meetings, in-home related services, and document translation that meets IDEA, FERPA, and NJ requirements. Built for Directors of Special Services and ELL leadership.
B — for families
Your child has a right to support in their school — and you have a right to understand it. Plain-language guides, available in Spanish.
02 — What we do
Live, in-person interpreters trained in special education vocabulary. We sit at the table so the family can fully participate.
Learn more→We accompany OTs, PTs, and SLPs into homes, translating between the therapist and the family in real time.
Learn more→IEPs, procedural safeguards, evaluations, family communications. Compliant with IDEA's native-language requirement.
Learn more→Interpretation for the conferences, evaluations, and routine communications that don't make it into the IEP.
Learn more→03 — How it works
Most district partnerships start the same way. Some last a meeting; some last a school year.
Call, email, or use the request form. We confirm the family's language, the date, the meeting type, and the location anywhere in NJ.
Not just bilingual — trained in IEP vocabulary, FERPA-aligned, background-checked. The interpreter receives the meeting context in advance.
On-site, ready early, prepared. The interpreter sits at the table with the family, translating both the procedural language and the meaning behind it.
Translated IEPs, procedural safeguards, prior written notice — delivered on the timeline IDEA requires, in a format the family can actually read.
For follow-ups, amendments, mid-year reviews. The same interpreter when possible, so the family doesn't have to start over.
04 — Why this exists
I started Educational Translation Services because every IEP meeting I've ever sat in had at least one parent at the table hoping they understood what was being decided about their kid — and sometimes they didn't. That isn't acceptable to me. It shouldn't be acceptable to anyone.
