A New Way to Learn
It is time to look at mentoring differently.
Our program offers a transformative and immersive experience that redefines the concept of mentoring. It emphasizes essential skills like voicing, signing, collaboration, self-analysis, and encouraging self-care.

Our solutions aren’t just bold, they are eXtra Bold!
Who We Are
Welcome to eXtra Bold ASL, where we revolutionize the way interpreters learn and prepare for certification! Born out of a passion for education and mentorship, this platform was developed as a culmination of my master's degree project, aimed at filling the gap in effective, practical interpreter training.
At eXtra Bold ASL, we believe the best way to learn is through trial and error—combined with a bit of fun. That’s why we’ve created An Interpreter’s Adventure, an immersive, interactive game designed to simulate real-world interpreting scenarios. As you navigate the game, you’ll find yourself interpreting in a variety of settings—restaurants, hospitals, schools, and more—all while managing self-care and skill-building at your own virtual home base.
For those seeking more structure, our boot camp provides a self-paced, deliberate practice schedule, complete with all the content needed to help you succeed. And for personalized guidance, we offer one-on-one mentoring sessions, tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you’re fully prepared for any certification test that comes your way.
Our mission is simple: to provide interpreters with an innovative, affordable, and enjoyable learning experience that not only enhances their skills but also empowers them to achieve their professional goals with confidence.
Are you ready for a new way to learn? Join us on this adventure!
