Hello,

I am the Communications Access Coordinator for University of Chicago Student Disability Services. I currently have a deaf student who wishes to take a Hebrew Language Class. One option we are exploring for this is to utilize live transcription technology so the student could read the prompts given by the instructor while the rest of the class does exercises out loud. Can you advise as to any technology that could transcribe Hebrew in real time?

Thank you.
