For Alex Weil, a great teacher made all the difference.
“I loved my high school French classes and my teacher made the content so fun and interesting, it inspired me to find my own French-related things that I was interested in.”
That early interest eventually took Weil all the way to France, where he lived for several years and taught at the University of Angers. Now, he hopes to inspire that same global curiosity in his own students.
Weil earned his B.A. from Westminster College and M.A. from the University of Cincinnati and previously taught at Magnificat High School. He is passionate about getting students interested in French language and Francophone culture and says he is “really excited to immerse myself in the St. Edward community and help to build a strong French program!”
And when he isn't speaking French? Weil enjoys traveling with his wife, gardening, and—perhaps most intriguingly—creating new zinnia varieties!
