810 Teaching Assistant Reviews

"It's so tedious and it also takes a lot of time."

"No too bad, it helps to rest from research, but not something you would do for living."

"The hours are great and pretty much up to you to decide. The only real downside is that most classes get heavy around the same time so you will be grading for a class while you have a heavy workload for yourself to do."

"I loved communication with the students and seeing them face their difficulties. And it was part time job."

"Being a teaching assistant is a very passionate, heavy job. I find myself being very challenged with each student but fulfilling when they see the light."

"Love: environment.Hate: conflicts with coursework."

"I like teaching, but hate students who expect a degree because they showed up. I also dislike the workload imposed upon us by the department. With a full appointment, you are expected to work 30 hours a week - and take classes - and do research!"

"Helping out students as much as possible."

"The fact that I get to interact with so many different people."

"Overall, I like to discuss programs with other people. But I find it a little bit boring doing grading."

"I love working with students, choosing which days and locations to work, and learning from more experienced professionals.I hate that political malcontents and religious zealots are making the organization less efficient than it could be."

"For a student or recent graduate it is good to keep your knowledge fresh and strengthen your abilities in the field you're helping as TA. But this is just a temporary position; there's not much anyone could expect from it."

"It is good salary and good work to do during the university time."

"Yes I love to work with the students."

"I love to teach. But sometimes you have to find a good balance between your TA job and your own study."
