S1E11: TAP Answers Your Questions

Listen Later

 In this episode of TAPcast, the TA Project team answers your questions about being a TA.

Chloe Wawrzyniak, Janna Dominick, and Zoë Kitchel answer the following questions:

  • Every day, the same student comes to class over 30 minutes late. Is there anything I can do?
  • What is something you wish you knew before you started teaching?
  • Have you ever been unprepared for class and how did you handle it?
  • Up until this point, I’ve always been in a classroom as a student. Now I’ve been asked to teach a class and I don’t feel confident that I know everything about the topic. How do you handle the transition from learner to teacher and feeling confident to teach?
  • A student came to me at the end of the semester wanting extra credit or to re-submit an assignment for a grade boost. What should I do?
  • How do you balance your TA and research duties, and your time that you put towards each? Is there a schedule that works for you?
