Graduate TA Handbook and Resources

A Handbook for Teaching Assistants and Teaching Fellows in Arts & Sciences

Getting Ready 

Preparing to teach can be overwhelming. We've gathered resources to help you get started. Understand your role as a teaching assistant, and learn what to expect for your first day and the rest of the semester. If you're creating a syllabus or a syllabus supplement, we have resources for you!

We hope these resources help address some of your concerns about teaching. Maybe you want to create a welcoming and inclusive climate in your classroom, or perhaps you're nervous about getting up in front of a classroom for the first time. Use these resources to help you feel prepared! Don't see something you're looking for? It might be covered in the First Day resources.
