Drawing on existing research in public service interpreting, especially as pertains to emotional situations and the impact of interpreter-mediated interactions on empathic communication, this paper seeks to propose scaffolding methods for teaching novice interpreters how to interpret (with) empathy during encounters involving children. The presented methods aim to equip interpreters to identify and react to potential challenges to effective communication without compromising their professional and ethical standards. There are several studies on interpreting for children and on approaches to coping with trauma and responding to one’s emotions during and after an interpreted event; however, studies on empathy and empathic communication in interpreter-mediated interactions are few. This paper may contribute to the growing body of literature on approaches to interpreting stress and emotion, with a focus on empathy as an important aspect of all interpreting pedagogy, and especially in interpreted events involving children.
