Spanish Teacher

**About Us**

Ahmedabad International School (AIS) was founded 22 years ago, on the belief that self-learning leads to lifelong learning. The AIS community inculcates a love for learning, fosters social and emotional acuity, develops responsible global citizens, and builds a strong academic foundation.

AIS is an IB World School where students fall in love with learning, discover their passions, and prepare for the world beyond the classroom. AIS is over 1600 students strong across K-12 with some of the finest placements in the world. AIS alumni are represented at Stanford, Columbia, Cornell, Brown, Carnegie Mellon, Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, St. Andrews, IITs, NLUs, and many more distinguished universities.

Our goal is to build a learning community like no other - one where students and teachers feel empowered to do their best work. AIS teachers are critically reflective practitioners who wear multiple hats - facilitators, mentors, learners, friends, researchers, and collaborators. They ask and ponder over hard questions like ‘what is the role of a teacher when information is available at a click’, ‘how do we design learning that is challenging and significant’, and much more.

**Our Team**

Faculty at AIS are exceptional. They create and model a high-quality learning environment. Our team is diverse and comes from some of the finest institutions in the world - Stanford, Brown, IITs, McKinsey, Teach for India, and varied international schools. AIS teachers are not the “sage on the stage” but rather the “guide by the side”. They are designers of learning, provide intellectual challenge, guide student curiosity, and co-construct learning with students. To ensure that we recruit and retain the strongest teachers, we strongly emphasize continuous teacher professional development and well-being.
