Faculty Welcome   

We are delighted to share that Eliana Cochas Ramon has been hired as St. Michael's Middle School Spanish teacher, working in partnership with Sra. Corinne Schmidt.
Sra. Cochas Ramon comes to St M with 20+ years of teaching experience at the lower school, middle school, and college level. A native speaker from Peru, she most recently was a Spanish instructor at Auburn University, where she earned multiple awards for excellence in teaching. 
In her words:
"I'm passionate about teaching students to reach their full potential, both academically and
linguistically, drawing from my many years of teaching Spanish and English. I work hard to
create a supportive and collaborative classroom where students can learn from each other
and grow together. I love using interactive teaching methods and the latest educational
technology to make lessons engaging and relevant and I'm always on the lookout for creative solutions to educational challenges. My goal is to create an inclusive environment where every student feels respected and valued and where everyone has equal opportunities to succeed. I celebrate our cultural and linguistic differences, fostering a space where every student can truly thrive."
Welcome, Sra. Cochas Ramon!
