Gregory Triffon
Center Director
Welcome to ELS in Orlando! I am the Center Director, Academic Director and a teacher as well. I've been involved in learning and teaching foreign languages most of my life, and I also lived abroad for ten years. I believe that learning a language is one small step to making the world a better place for all of us. I enjoy meeting people from all over the world, so I'm looking forward to speaking with you. Please feel free to ask me any questions.

I thoroughly enjoy working at ELS. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Spanish and a Master's degree in Bicultural/Bilingual Studies. I've lived in Germany and Japan and I love to travel. I've worked as an Outreach Coordinator, a Conflict Mediator, and a travel referral agent. I love working with international students and teaching them as well. It is never a dull moment.

I came to ELS/Orlando because I wanted to improve my English. I wanted to have more fluency in the language. When I first arrived here, I was sure that I made the best choice. All the teachers and office staff were always helpful when I needed them. I have to talk about great friends that I made; friends with totally different cultures studying at ELS for me was like a dream come true. It is an experience that everybody should have.
