How to work with an interpreter.
BACKGROUND
A trip to China provided two nursing educators an opportunity to teach Chinese nurses and, in the process, to discover principles for using an interpreter to translate from English into the students' language.


CONCLUSIONS
The authors present 16 tips for use by instructors who teach non-English-speaking learners. The principles apply for all situations of communicating with native speakers of another language using a translator.
