AIS is proud of its highly skilled and expert staff, who bring expertise, unique talent and a depth and breadth of experience to the school. We are fortunate to have experienced, dedicated, and inspirational teaching and professional staff, several of whom have been with the school for many years. Their loyalty and service has enhanced the warm and collegial atmosphere at AIS and contributes to the vibrant educational environment.
While each teacher brings a unique set of skills to the classroom, our teaching staff are continually learning and developing new and innovative ways to enhance student learning. All staff enjoy significant opportunities for professional development each year, ensuring that teaching methods, curriculum and our school operations are constantly evolving in line with best practice.
Each academic year, teachers from both AIS campuses gather for the annual AIS Teachers Conference focused on improving learning outcomes for our students. Invited international experts, and experienced AIS team leaders, facilitate a series of discussion groups and workshops that help teachers build their expertise and skills in modern teaching.
Throughout the academic year teachers are provided with additional training opportunities to improve all essential skills, adapt to new technology, and apply them effectively to achieve a positive long-term impact on their students. In addition to the building of professional skills, teachers are also provided with opportunities to enhance their own personal development. Taking the definitive role of a mentor, it’s important that our educators embody the high level of interpersonal skills and self-awareness that we aim to instill in our students. AIS personal development initiatives for staff include dress-making, yoga, fitness classes and other activities that help staff achieve life balance and personal goals.
