TAA is a year-long program for graduate teaching assistants and graduate instructors who are interested in developing their teaching. This program is open to grad students with active GTA and GI appointments across the university and is focused on building teaching confidence, community, and skills. It is facilitated by Ana Quiring from the Center for Teaching and Learning, who was a grad student herself recently enough to know all the ups and downs of the job.

This program meets monthly, alternating Zoom and in person (with food). Dates and times are TBA. In addition to making new friends and becoming a more confident teacher, you will also have the opportunity to earn professional badges that you can add to your CV and LinkedIn.

To learn more, visit our website. Please reach out to Ana at ana.quiring@umsl.edu with any questions.
