鈥淭he Interpreter Training Program at 好色先生TV has taught me so much about my career. With the support of amazing advisers and highly educated professors, I was ready to enter the workforce with confidence. The ITP program also taught life skills, such as critical thinking methods, that I carry with me daily. I am not only an educated, professional interpreter, but a well-rounded individual thanks to Troy's ITP. 鈥�
