Francois Stalder

World Language Teacher

American International School of Budapest

I am French and Swiss and a graduate from the Université de Strasbourg (1994). I started teaching German and French in France, then moved to Oman. In 1996, I got married and taught German at the Lycée de Bangkok, and in 1999 I became Head of Department and Boarding Housemaster at Harrow International School, Bangkok, and went on secondment to Harrow School in 2007. When I returned to Harrow Bangkok, I learned Spanish (mostly self-taught) and started teaching it a few years later. My family and I moved to Bangalore, India, in 2015, where I continued as Head of Languages and French and Spanish teacher. I now teach the French, Spanish and German at AIS Budapest.
