Teaching Assistant Programs

Welcome to the Teaching Assistant Programs homepage at the University of Connecticut. Teaching Assistant Programs offers services, workshops and orientations for graduate teaching assistants. Our mission is to support our graduate instructors in all their various roles across campus to ensure success in the classroom for them and for their students.

In addition to the more general services related to training our future professoriate, we also offer specialized language and culture support for International Teaching Assistants. We offer pre-semester orientations for all TAs both in August and in January, and beginning in Fall 2003 there will additional workshops ongoing throughout the semester. Individual consultations and videotaping are also available upon request.

We look forward to meeting you and would like to help you succeed in your teaching.
