"The best part of being a Teaching Assistant is the interaction with the students. Being physically present in the workshop and experiencing the project take form is really a peculiar experience. Help students when they are stuck over a problem is in itself a challenge which I look up to every day. I do not believe that there exists a part of the job which I hate. Being a part time job, everything associated with the job is acceptable."

Teaching Assistant at University of Waterloo
in Waterloo, ON

"The only downfall of being a researcher is when your supervisor is not to your liking or you don't agree with him/her. I did two research projects, one was an amazing experience with great teams while the second was in a lab that I did not enjoy. However the experience overall wasn't so bad."

Teaching Assistant at Growing Green Child Development Center
in Kenosha, WI

"I love helping people, and working with the children. I don't really hate anything about it. Everyday is a new exciting adventure and a new challenge :). The only thing, I do not like is the instability of it. It seems unless you have your teacher certificate...your job is transitory. It makes it hard on the kids, to be shifting teachers constantly. I plan to continue working with children/families just not as a teacher."

Teaching Assistant at Carnegie Mellon University

"I love teaching and explaining the concepts to students and clearing any doubts they have. The thing I like the least as a TA is grading. Since it is a monotonous repetitive work, I do not enjoy as much as working in a lab."
