Enjoy Teaching? Good at it?
Become a TA Trainer!
Every year in the Spring semester, the Center for Teaching and Learning asks experienced TAs to apply to help train new TAs. The Center needs students in the sciences, social sciences, and humanities to lead new TAs in discussions such as:
• Grading in the Humanities and Qualitative Social Sciences
• Grading in the Quantitative Social & Natural Sciences
• Leading Discussions
• Teaching Recitations in the Sciences and Quantitative Social Sciences
• Being an Effective Lab TA
Trainers will prepare to train other TAs by participating in several day-long workshops. Applicants should expect to be available for two days in May and during the entire week of August 25-29. They will receive a $1,400 stipend.
Here is a copy of the application.
Applications are due the first Friday in March.
