Hi. I just got a new client who is from Iraq. 
She has been attending a comunity college and I honestly don't know how she has done it without computers. She can type for the most part but is still in the intermediate level. She is trying to find an interpreter because she doesn't want to miss anything in our sessions. I think this would be a great idea but I'm also thinking recommending to her some kind of intro to windows while we search for an interpreter. One of the books I use or have used in the past was the Windows Explained. It was concise and not overly technical. I've contacted RNIB and they don't have this available in arabic. 
I have thought about translating the english version with word and having saved as mp3's but not sure how good the arabic speech is. 
Or maybe some sites to find materials in other languages?
I really apreciate the feedback I get from this list.
Anybody have any thoughts on this one?
