Edenne Beljour is an educator with a CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) certification.  Ms. Beljour has almost a decade of teaching experience both in the US and abroad. She is also a certified Medical Interpreter and has worked as an interpreter for many years.  Edenne was born and raised in Haiti, and immigrated with her family to Knoxville, TN as a young child. She has since lived in various parts of the country, including Orlando Florida where she attended the University of Central Florida and obtained a degree in Administration.  While working in Washington, DC, she took a break from her career to volunteering in Peru, teaching English to orphans. What should have been temporary, has turned into her calling.  That experience fueled something in her which she could not ignore.  Her vision is to help create professional growth opportunities and personal fulfillment through language proficiency. TLS is giving her the opportunity to do just that. Her experiences have taught her that teaching grammar and vocabulary alone is simply not enough. It is equally important to inspire, motivate and ignite the necessary confidence in each learner to help them achieve their learning goals. This is what sets her apart, and this is how she will continue to impact the lives of others.
