Our People

KAS teachers are the driving force behind our students’ success in college and beyond.

We know from research that the teacher is the most important in-school factor that affects student learning. Many other factors matter as well – supportive parents, future-minded leadership, a world-renowned curriculum, and state-of-the-art facilities – but every day it is our experienced teachers that engage students in the rich and diverse learning that is at the core of the Kaohsiung American School experience.
